Will Palin win Jews - and Florida - over to Obama?

Will Palin win Jews - and Florida - over to Obama?

By Bradley Burston

The scene: Washington DC. Florida Democratic Congressman Alcee Hastings, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, is addressing a panel discussion sponsored by the National Jewish Democratic Council.

"If Sarah Palin isn't enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention," said Hastings.

"Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don't care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through."

Much has changed in recent months in the campaign for the Jewish vote, but the Obama camp has reason to be concerned that one variable, perhaps the crucial variable, has not.

Barack Obama's percentage of the total Jewish vote, which could prove critical to the outcome in such key states as Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio, lags far behind the average for Democratic presidential hopefuls.

An American Jewish Committee poll released late last week showed Obama taking 57 percent of the Jewish vote, versus 30 percent to McCain. "He seems to have reached a plateau," AJC research director David Singer told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

Even on www.contentions.com the right-wing Jewish site I can tell you they are so afraid these days... no one can defend Palin without looking ridiculous.

If Jews and others realize that the Left Behind views of Palin originate in a counter reformation attempt to discredit Lutheran end times views,

and that these Left Behind 'christian zionists' are really out to cause WWIII by forcing a re-building of a Third Temple in Jerusalem, which really means a destruction of the two mosques that currently sit atop the Temple Mount. If Jews and others realize this, they may want to NOT want a return to the sacrificial system the rebuilt temple would end up with...assuming WWIII didn't start up first.
