At the same time, it could be that
the Israel issue will become a non-
issue this time around, given that
other Democratic hopefuls are also
seen as strong proponents of Israel.
Some analysts also believe that some
Jews for whom Israel is primary may
opt to support President George W.
Bush, given his high marks for his
handling of the Middle East.
And there are also many Jewish vot-
ers who will back the candidate that
comes closest to their policy views, no
matter what religion.
Significant Issues
"For a significant number of people,
maybe even an equal number, they are
Jewish, but health care, the economy,
civil rights and the war tend to drive
their support for a candidate more
than whether one candidate happens
to be Jewish," Grossman said.
Lieberman is one of the more con-
servative members of the Democratic
caucus in the Senate. He supports
faith-based _initiatives that are very
controversial in the Jewish community,
and is a strong proponent of U.S. mil-
itary action in Iraq.
Lieberman's main problem, some ana-
lysts say, may not be galvanizing Jewish
support, but moving beyond that sup-
port and picking up checks from non-
Jews, especially liberal Democrats.
"The challenge is always how you go
beyond your base," Grossman said. "Every
candidate has to worry about that."
Lieberman is aided by a strong envi-
ronmental record and is seen as having
a strong background in defense and
homeland security issues. He also has
strong ties to Gore's 2000 campaign,
and can easily make inroads with
Gore's fund-raisers and donors.
However, in certain ways,
Lieberman will find himself with a
disadvantage. He has consistently
clashed with the entertainment indus-
try, another key Democratic — Jewish
— fund-raising constituency, on issues
of violence in the media. His strong
ties to faith may play better in the
general election than in the primaries,
where he is competing for support of a
more liberal constituency.
And some argue that individual
donors may back away from a Jewish
candidate because of his religion, even
if they_ don't admit it.
People in Lieberman's camp say they
are taking no constituencies and no
individual donors for granted, because
of a strong field of contenders and a
weak economy that may make some
people less willing to contribute. ❑
