92% of Republicans on Israel's side; only 42% of Democrats

From Eric Dondero:

In 2008, 78% of all American Jews voted for Barack Hussein Obama for President. Many of the 22% of Jews who voted against him, warned of a coming catastrophe in American foreign policy against Israel, if he were to be elected. The 22% have proven to be correct:

• Obama administration pushback against Israeli warnings over the threat of an Iranian nuclear arsenal.

• Benjamin Netanyahu insulted by Obama at a recent White House visit. Obama walked out of the room in the middle of their meeting, with the excuse, I'm going to have dinner "with Michele and the kids."

• The very latest; threats by the US to vote "present" for the very first time, in the UN Security Council against Israel, in regards to calls to halt further Israeli housing in East Jerusalem.

And now this breaking news from Zogby:

The poll’s findings also highlight the deep partisan gap that continues to grow between Republicans and Democrats, with Democrats having an unfavorable rating of Israel for the first time.

•42% of Democrats had a favorable rating of Israel compared to 92% of Republicans resulting in a 50% gap between the parties.

•While the gap is higher in this poll, the finding is consistent with a recent Gallup poll that had 53% of Democrats with a favorable view compared to 80% of Republicans.

Will this help Republican candidates with the Jewish community heading into the November elections?

Despite repeated attempts, pollster John Zogby was unavailable to provide Libertarian Republican with a comment on this question.

However, Joe Sciarrino, Spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Comm. commented to LR:

"The United States has had a long-standing and strategic partnership with Israel, and over the past year we’ve seen this Administration neglect that relationship. Democrats in Congress who agree with this decision to alienate such a key ally may risk alienating voters come November.”
