Granted the special NY election result [Weiner’s seat] was partly to rebuke Obama, but in a heavily Jewish district, the publicized fact that the contestant Democrat and Jew David Weprin voted in favor of New York’s passage of gay marriage, not to mention that Weprin wasn’t monolithically pro-Israel. Of course, the ugliest skeleton in the closet was Weiner himself. The election, therefore, shows that it’s not just the right that goes crazy over socio-ethnic-ethic issues.
