The fact is I think that Liberals everywhere like Hillary, but this article would speak to the myth that Jews like the Clintons no questions asked.

Perceptive. Thank you. Liberals love her, but she (and bubba) have in fact lost many liberal Jews on policy issues (we vote for that, don't we). But, IMO, the demonization of Jews as a block of dem voters is naive (as illustrated by younger Jewish voters). We haven't talked before, but thanks for a fresh opinion.

Nobody is demonizing anyone when pointing out voting patterns. I get so sick of that. It is not racist or antisemitic to say 91% of blacks and 80% of Jews voted for Gore. It is the truth. A Philly exit poll showed Bush won, by about 7%, the under 30 Jewish vote. But Gore won 78% of the 30 to 49 age bracket and 95% of those over 65. Those numbers hardly suggest there is going to be any major shift in the near future.
