But those ideas are massive generalizations. Just because you are Jewish does not mean you will vote like other Jewish people. Same for gays, evangelical Christians, African-Americans, women and every other subset of the American population.<BR/><BR/>I think its ignorant of the media to say that the Jews, gays, or anyone else for that matter is leaning one way or the other. We are all individuals.<BR/><BR/>- George (the classic Asian-American, urban-dwelling, dog-loving, bicycling voter)Geohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13931847026373746798noreply@blogger.com
