In a recent interview, a Hamas official, Ahmad Yousef stated: "We like Mr. Obama, and we hope that he will win the elections. I hope Mr. Obama and the Democrats will change the political discourse... I do believe [Obama] is like John Kennedy, a great man with a great principle. And he has a vision to change America to make it in a position to lead the world community, but not with humiliation and arrogance."
In view of Obama's albeit unrequested endorsement from Hamas and Hussein's stated intention of meeting with murderous dictators without any preconditions, the Democratic politburo is starting to doubt the victory in November.
One of its main bases of support, the Jews, may slip right through their fingers. Frustrated by Obama's association with anti-Semites such as Rev. Jeremiah Wright or racist Louis Farrakhan, or rabid anti-Israelis such as Carter and Brzezinski, American Jews are taking another look at the Democratic party.
Leading Democrats fear that if their party nominates Obama to run against McCain, the Jewish vote will help contribute to a Democratic loss in November, CBS reported last month.
CBS noted that Sen. Obama lost the Jewish vote in Florida by double-digits. It said that an Obama victory in the primaries would forge an unusual alliance of Hispanics, blue-collar whites and Jews who would help send Sen. McCain to the White House.
