No believes that President would not be happy if Israel went away. He has denounced Israel every chance he has. Denounced Netanyahu and commended the Palestinians. He has told Israel NOT to protect itself. Americans, Jewish and evangelical Christians, have run from his policies.
“Reporter Josh Nathan-Kazis in the Jewish Daily Forward quotes Pew researchers on what distinguishes the data on Jewish voters in their analysis:
“The increase among Jews is greater than in the general public, and greater than the increase in… other religious groups,” said Alan Cooperman, associate director for research at Pew…
“For most religious groups and for the public as a whole, the trend toward the GOP has come from people who are increasingly likely to say they lean toward the Republican party,” said Greg Smith, a senior researcher at Pew. “Jewish voters are really the exception.That’s the one religious group we’ve analyzed where the shift toward the GOP is not among leaners, but rather among actual Republican identifiers.”
Even if he claimed he eats bagels and lox, the Jews of Americans prefer a safe israel to a White House promoted Palestine.
The GOP presidential nominee will win, maybe with a majority of Jewish voters.
Republican Jewish Coalition, 2/2/12
Washington, D.C. (February 2, 2012) — The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) responded today to an analysis from the Pew Research Center showing a significant increase in Jewish support for Republicans between 2008 and 2011.
RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks said:
“This notable analysis from the unimpeachable professionals at the Pew Research Center shows a significant shift in Jewish political identification – a shift toward Republicans and away from Democrats. This was not the softer move of more Jewish respondents saying that they ‘lean’ Republican, but a solid shift in Jewish self-identification as Republicans.
“The Pew analysis today offers another in a series of critical data points highlighting this trend within the Jewish community. We had the strong Jewish vote for Republican Bob Turner in the special election in NY’s 9th district last year. The American Jewish Committee poll in the fall of 2011 showed a significant erosion in Jewish support for President Obama. In that poll, for the first time, a plurality or majority of Jewish respondents disapproved of the President’s handling of key issues such as the economy and the U.S.-Israel relationship.
“These facts reinforce the case we have been making that the Republicans are making political inroads in the Jewish community.”
Background:
In an analysis released today, the Pew Research Center noted:
Even Jewish voters, who have traditionally been and remain one of the strongest Democratic constituencies, have moved noticeably in the Republican direction; Jewish voters favored the Democrats by a 52-point margin in 2008 but now prefer the Democratic Party by a significantly smaller 36-point margin.
Republicans have also seen gains among Jewish voters, who have long been strong supporters of the Democratic Party. In 2008, 72% of Jews identified themselves as Democrats or said they leaned toward the Democratic Party, and Democrats held a 52-point advantage among this group. In 2011, the Democratic advantage among Jews has shrunk to 36 points, with 29% of the Jewish population aligning with the GOP. While the majority of Jews are still Democrats or lean toward the Democratic Party, Democrats’ dominance among this group has weakened since the last presidential election. In fact, Jews are the only religious group analyzed in which the percentage who identify themselves as Republican (as opposed to leaning toward the GOP) has risen significantly. [Emphasis added.]

I’ve long believed that any Jew that supports the liberal Democrat has a death wish. No group so opposed to Israel and supportive of their enemies deserves a single Jewish vote, yet so many Jews (in the US, at least) vote Democratic. You really think Obama is a supporter of Israel? Well, we’re about to find out. When Israel strikes Iran, the cards will be played and we’ll know what’s in the heart of our president.
