Re: "Jews have been voting Republican and switching to the Republican Party in greater numbers in recent years."

Wishful thinking.

Jewish vote in '80 presidential race: Reagan 39 percent, Carter 45 percent.

Jewish vote in '96 presidential race: Dole 16 percent, Clinton 78 percent, Perot 3 percent.

Jewish vote in '00 presidential race: Bush 19 percent, Gore 79 percent, Nader 1 percent.

Re: "So have blacks, Hispanics and other minorities":

Blacks were roughly 9-1 for Gore vs. Bush; Hispanics were roughly 7-1 for Gore vs. Bush.

Where the Republicans are making gains is among white voters in the United States, not Jewish/African-American/Hispanic voters.

Yes, there is a shift, but it is taking time. More Jews vote Republican than do blacks......
