This endorsement hopefully will help with moderates and the Independents

I have a feeling that NY is doable .... (given the recent close Siena poll)
but the Jewish swing vote is critical ....

Is the Jewish vote around 12 pct of the electorate .....

Big majorities from Upstate and Western NY plus a good Jewish majority for
Mccain and I think we can win but not by much

Is this a fantasy or is it possible ....

If if if by miracle McCain pulls the right move to get NY plus remember Hillary is a strong note in NY and the Pumas are still very angry this will be huge.  I know it is a long shot but a shot non the less if we want to write to west NY State newspapers maybe that will help

If the Republicans carry New York it will be the first time they did so in my memory and I have been voting since Carter took office ( not that I voted for him). The polls are very close and it might be possible to see a Republican win  . When I heard the numbers the other day I could hardly believe McCain was so close here in NY . We should do everything we can to push McCain over the top. A New York victory would really be a wakeup call to the Democrat party that they were backing a dead dog the whole time.

Writing the Newspapers would help ...

I love the Pumas.. I saw one interviewed and you could
see the rage .....and of course there's a complete and total
blackout of the Pumas ......which makes me mad as hell

Kerry got 80 of the NY Jewish vote in 2004 ......
and that helped him carry NY bigtime

But the Jewish vote would have to turn against Obama bigtime ....

But It wont happen unless the 527's and Mccain
finally get serious and finally expose Obama .....
which we are hoping for

I was also shocked ....
NY Republicans also think its possible too ....
