What Has Israel Ever Done For You, Obama?

This week, Obama's party suffered an upset defeat in a New York congressional election in a heavily Jewish constituency. Israel was not the only factor at a time of high unemployment and economic stagnation. But a Public Policy Polls survey taken shortly before the election showed a majority of voters said Israel was "very important" in determining how they cast their ballot, and fewer than one in four Jewish voters approved of Obama's handling of Netanyahu.
That has implications for Obama's own reelection campaign in some swing states with significant Jewish populations, particularly Florida. More Here.

  1. Good catch.
    It's up.

    The coming veto is a given.
    The question is not what will happen before or during the vote.
    The question is what will happen afterwards.
    This is a stand up vote. Ya, or nay.
    It will only reinforce the Arab worlds feeling about the U.S./Israeli "special relationship".
