Norman Podhoretz, one of the original neoconservatives,
just wrote a
352-page book asking "Why Are Jews Liberals?" To Podhoretz, and to many others, it's a mystery why Jews remain loyal to the Democratic party and continue to avoid aligning with today's southern-based GOP. After all, many Jews fall into a demographic—higher income, suburban, professional—that has tended to align with the GOP. And recent Republican administrations have been aggressively pro-Israel (at least when Israel happens to be governed by a right-of-center coalition). Plus, Republicans have pretty much purged the folks who make unfortunate stereotypical comments about Christians' elder brothers in faith. Well, pretty much.
