Attacking Sheldon Adelson: Obama's Dog Whistle to Anti-Israel Left

Mitt Romney has many wealthy donors who have contributed millions to super PACs favorable to his candidacy. But Democrats and the Obama campaign have consistently targeted Las Vegas Jewish -- and pro-Israel -- casino magnate Sheldon Adelson.

Obama needs to keep every part of his base rapid and mobilized to turn out for him in the fall, and the anti-Israel left makes up a part of that base. These voters are attracted to organizations like Media Matters and others funded by the likes of George Soros. And singling out Adelson -- by painting him stereotypically as a wealthy, nefarious, shady, behind-the-scenes puppet master -- serves as a dog whistle to keep these groups engaged.

427-Hollywood IS the jewish vote? hahahaha, maybe the johnny come latelys', who've recently converted. That's why you don't see big wigs, but big names slithering to Obama's side. New money doesn't mean much to the common Jewish person.

The politics are not about a race (which those who are born to Jewish Mothers) nor is it about religion.

This is about Zionism. And Central Bank control of the world's economy. And propping up fiat currencies while debasing real money such as gold, silver, and diamonds.

It is about consolidating Israel's power in the Middle East. Both Candidates cater to these power brokers. America licks the boots of Israel, and we are damned proud to do it!
