    OK - that wasn't clear from your post.

        Bowman being an exception. I think he wants to run for Senate someday.

        Thank you for your attention to this matter.

          I'm not convinced - it's not like they're being voted in on a wave on moderacy in the first place. It seems like the dumber the edges of the spectrum get, the more entrenched their supporters become.

          I was only joking

            I don’t know. Opinion is pretty squarely for Israel. I’d use their own words if I were running against them.

                Going back to the original question...I was listening to Clay & Buck on the radio this week. They had a segment where they asked Jewish voters to call in and tell them if anything had changed in their politics since the Hamas attack.

                Most of the callers were women. All were Democrats except for one lady in Chicago, who stated her family gave heavily to the Democrat Party, mostly through fundraisers (including for Pelosi). With the exception of the Chicago Republican, all said they would still be voting for the Democrat nominee in the Presidential race and also in other upcoming Federal office elections.

                I just don't understand the seemingly monolithic support...

                    I have a pretty good read on what young women think through my wife’s instagram.

                    I was floored by how unanimous and black/white the support for the Palestinian side is among them.

                    Or maybe that’s just who is comfortable expressing an opinion on social media.

                    The View has put out the word.

                    Israel is a terrorist nation because they retaliated.

                    The View talks, women listen.
