Obama will end up with 65% of the Jewish vote.

No more than 60% max.

...Hillary would have received 85-90% of the Jewish vote.

Of course this is only hypothetical, but my guess would be more like 70%. Her Royal Thighness has her own baggage with Jewish voters: antisemitic remarks on more than one occasion in the past, plus kissing Mrs. Arafat after the the latter's Israel-bashing speech.

The shlepers will have their minds changed by the shlepees. These old Jews are a tough lot. They are not going to be swayed by their mashugena grand children.

If you'd like to be on this middle east/political ping list, please FR mail me.

High volume. Articles on Israel can also be found by clicking on the Topic or Keyword Israel, WOT

..................

I hate to break it to the author, but if Obama's elected, it won't be because of the Jewish vote. Even in Florida, where the Jewish population approaches 4%.

Thank you, justiceseeker93; the article itself is worrisome.

Children and grandchildren are making trips to their Jewish families in Florida to persuade them to vote for the Democrats

The good news is that these "children and grandchildren" think this is necessary. Apparently no one had to go convince the geezers to vote for Clinton/Gore/Kerry.

RE: “Sad to have to manipulate your elderly grandparents or parents to achieve an electoral victory. WHO the HECK does that kind of thing??? It’s SICK!”

Yes, it is terrible; but then, to these “schleppers” to FL, and in the words of their hero, Karl Marx, “The end justifies the means.”

Great point. Plus, the MSM thinks it's necessary to make a big to-do about it.

Sarah Silverman - You're Gonna Die Soon
Maybe we need to send all of our aging Democratic Bubbies and Zadies in Florida this version of the hateful Sara Silverman. Pay attention to the last 8 seconds of Bubbie in a coffin. Pretty sick. We need to send this our for Obama.

The Whole Foods character, Jonathan somebody from Berkeley, is the one in FL trying to convince elderly relatives to vote Obama.

What’s the deal with your posts?

as I read your comment about Cali being in play (counter the past several election cycles there), it occurred to me, IIRC, that the CA ballot this year has the gay marriage referendum on it. That may carry a large number of voters over to the GOP.

Gay marriage referendums have gone down in huge numbers in every state where they’ve been on the ballot and bolstered the GOP candidates. Still, I’m not counting on McCain/Palin carrying the Golden State.

RE: “Why would he help in California? He’s just been in Florida trying to convince his grandparents to vote for Barack Obama, at the urging of Sarah Silverman, no less. Besides, I thought everyone here thought people who eat natural/organic foods are tree hugging hippies.”

The Jonathan character from Berkeley/Whole Foods is NOT for McCain. Something bad is wrong with those two posters thoughts — “rom” and the other guy.

I won’t shop at Whole Foods - would rather eat dirt — bunch of disgusting far lefties at the helm in clientele — avoid them like the plague.

If that idiotic video indicates the degree of respect she shows to the elderly, why should the elderly Jews in FL take her advice to vote for “Osama” Obama? Wow, she is even more of nutjob than I had previously thought. Yet the sicko MSM thinks she’s politically astute.

She will die alone and neglected, if she doesn’t OD first.
