Why are the Republicans courting the Jewish vote?

Asked by comity (2837points) December 11th, 2011

As long as I can remember secular jews voted on social issues, and were relatively liberal Democrats. Orthodox Jews are passionate about Israel but they constitute 10% of the Jewish population. Yet, in the Republican debate last night, the Republicans were courting the Jewish vote. Hubby says it’s because of money and donations to campaigns. I think maybe they really do care about Israel and such. What do you think?
