Barack Obama is making significant gains among Jews, according to two new polls.
An October tracking poll by Gallup found Obama leading John McCain among registered Jewish voters by a margin of 74-22 percent.
Obama’s share of the vote in the monthly Gallup survey has risen five points since September and 13 points since July.
The October poll was based on 564 interviews conducted Oct. 1-21 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percent.
In addition, a Qunnipiac University poll of Florida voters found Obama winning 77 percent of the Jewish vote, compared to 20 percent for McCain. The poll, taken Oct. 16-21, surveyed 87 Jewish voters and had a margin of error of plus or minus 10.5 points.
The polls suggest that after months of hovering around 60 percent, Obama appears to be within striking distance of the 75-80 percent of the Jewish vote won by the three previous Democratic nominees.

Biden will not be a good VP

Comparing Obama to Stalin?
I guess your grandfather was born in Sweden or Ohio, otherwise you would know who Stalin is..
Certainly I don’t agree with his foreign policy. However, he has not (yet?) done anything wrong in his life. Never spoke against Jews or has done any harm to a Jew.
So how can you possibly compare him to a person who killed my grandfather and his brother?!?!?!
those who are voting for obama should be ashaimed and should rethink befor they actualy vote and cant turn back
no one vote for obama hes a rasha h e should never be president
COLive is “the new kid on the block” attempting (and to an extent, succeeding) to create a bit of controversy in order to create new readership. Part of me wants to understand and accept that, because, after all, it must be tough going in the competitave “on line” world, fighting for every precious reader, of what I think, are too many “CHABAD NEWS WEB SITES”, all catering to the same group of people. However, I think you guys are getting a bit carried away, by attempting to portray yourselves as “FARE AND BALANCED”, by doing the noble thing of allowing… Read more »
DRUDGE REPORT
MCCAIN VOLUNTEER ‘ATTACKED AND MUTILATED’ IN PITTSBURGH…
‘B’ CARVED INTO 20-YEAR OLD WOMAN’S FACE…
‘Robber cut face’…
THIS IS JUST THE START IF BARAK HUSSEIN OBAMA GETS ELECTED
– he is what this country needs aside from Moshiach COMPARING OBAMA NEXT TO MESSIAH …REFUAH SHELEMA……OBAMA SHOULD BE COMPARED TO HAMAN AND STALIN ETC.
From this it looks like COL is saying that Chabad stands behind Obama. Is this true??
and b’ezras hashem will be voting for Mr. Obama – he is what this country needs aside from Moshiach
How can any self-respecting Jew vote for him? I am shocked that any Jewish person would want Barack Hussein Obama as the leader of this country. He has a record of connections with anti-Semites and will NOT be good for Israel.
Is that an endorsement? will Yossi vote for him and biden?
