This is not a war! We, the democratic voters, are torn between two great choices. I think most of us will have absolutely no problem voting for either one. I for one, did not decide until I was in the voting booth, and it pained me to no end that I had to choose one over the other.
As for Obama's position on Israel, Ms. Goldfeder's (who was mentioned in the article)statement that, "I am Jewish, and I haven't heard him say a word about Israel" is just plain wrong (and I heard this from several Jewish acquaintances). For any serious candidate, from either party, to be hostile to Israel is committing a political suicide. And I say it as an American born in Israel, and who still cares for it passionately.
Better to think of the make-up of the Supreme Court if a Republican is elected. better think of the social inequality that will worsen under 8 more years of Republican rule.
