Robert Wexler was the first Jewish Congressman to carry water for Barack Obama and his love and support for Israel during the Democratic nominating contest. Now the Florida Congressman is creating some space between Obama and himself, while trying to rehabilitate Obama a bit among his Jewish constituents.
Many Jewish voters in Wexler's district, South Florida, New York, and New Jersey, now regard Obama as hostile to Israel (he is), and are feeling buyer's remorse. Democratic members of the Senate and Congress from these areas are a bit terrified.
All I can say is it's about time.
