And you thought (American) Jews were smart

The poster above has been appearing in Florida (Hat Tip: Shark Tank). But, incredibly, in polls released up to the day before the attacks in Cairo and Benghazi, President Obama is extending his lead among Jewish voters (Hat Tip: Memeorandum).
President Barack Obama is closing extending his lead with Jewish voters, leading among registered voters 70-25 percent according to unreleased Gallup daily tracking poll data .

The data, obtained through a Democratic source, shows Obama up from leading 64-29 in polling this spring — and on par with his 2008 performance at this point when he led 69-25 over John McCain in Gallup polling. The data is drawn from tracking polls taken between July 1 and September 10th.

Despite a heated debate on Israel, most Jewish voters are Democrats and align closely with the Democratic Party on domestic issues from abortion to taxes and spending, and Republicans have tried without success for years to pry the group away from the Democratic Party. The Israel debate, meanwhile, often aims at a broad national audience that sees Israel as an ally, rather than specifically at American Jews.
What is wrong with American Jews? Don't you have a survival instinct? How can you vote for this guy?

Carl,
time to forget about the majority of Americas jews. they are like the Jews in Egypt during the darkness or Jews that stayed in Spain and became good xtians.
Its not that they're stupid, they are more interested in abortion etc. Fortunately so many of those Jews progeny are goyim.
