Is The Jewish Vote Up For Grabs?

Somebody thinks so. The Republican Jewish Coalition has planned a special welcome for Barack Obama:

In advance of Sen. Barack Obama's remarks tomorrow to B'nai Torah Congregation in Boca Raton, Florida, the Republican Jewish Coalition today released a new advertisement that will run in three major newspapers in South Florida.

The ad will run on Thursday, May 22 in the Palm Beach Post, Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel and the Boca Raton News.

Here is the ad (click to enlarge)

Every presidential election year, there is talk about the Jewish vote being up for grabs, that the Republicans are making inroads. According to the article, the Jewish vote for Republican candidates has been increasing every year from 11% in 1992 to 25% in 2004.

Can you blame McCain's people for thinking that this year they will continue that trend?
