I tend to come down with Wand NahnCee on the “losing the Jewish voter support” question. Whiskey’s point assumes that as a class they will vote their interests. That has not been true in this country for over three decades, so I think in this he is wrong.

Why should supporters of Israel be expected to change now? They are genetically created to vote for the party they perceive as supporting “little people”. Its makes no difference their perception is based on smoke and mirrors. They vote democrat, their children vote democrat and their grandchildren will vote democrat. They cannot change. To do so would be an admission of massive class failure. The few who think as individuals and vote intelligently are thought to be “throwbacks”, and shunned.
