Jewish Community FINALLY Awakens

There's change in the air.

Obama has run into a buzz saw among the mainstream Jewish organizations, including traditional Democratic Party donors. The mood among Jewish political contributors is explosive, to an extent I have never seen before. Privately I have heard personal comments about Obama, e.g. “calling him a sociopath is too generous,” from a number of prominent Jewish contributor to Democratic causes.

This may help explain why Obama yesterday appeared to back off from reported plans to impose a settlement on Israel based on the 1967 borders.

Goldman goes on to discuss some polling numbers which pre-date the most recent Obama insults to Israel (and common sense, for that matter.)
