Wow: "He's Got a Blue Sign, a Jewish Name... I Mean, What Else Does It Take..."

A Democratic challenger against a Jewish Republican incumbent state lawmaker wonders about that suspiciously Jewish name, Mandel.

And that's only the second most objectionable attack in this audio.

1 Yeah, I heard that. It was disgusting.

What a courageous state legislator, by the way.

3 Holy crap. This guy and his wife are slimy shitbags. That Mandel is a MARINE, and they think he went AWOL on the district? What the fuck about a certain Illinois Senator who's been AWOL running for President? I'm sure they support him, don't they? This might help McCain in Ohio some more, you think? Ohio's Murtha?

4 And America Blog didn't notice the DNC said Eric cantor is Jewish. Jewish, Jewish like a 100 times?

5 And you just know if Mandel refused to go to Iraq, these same assholes would say he was AWOL from the Marines.

6 Mandel is uberpopular, I see MANDEL signs next to O! propaganda in the jewish parts of town.  I wonder if that will change.  Well, maybe it would, if this had MSM legs.

7 So, the guy gets elected and then gets called to duty and goes through the agonizing choice of leaving his constituents, who just elected him. Imagine how hard it would be to say no to your country when called if you are genuinely patriotic; then this asshole married couple decide that you've abandoned your district and you are particularly bad because you are Jewish?


Pricks, scum, oozing pustules, worthless, shallow, pathetic, mind numbed losers.

9 Eh...On the Jew thing he was saying that people assumed he was a Democrat because he had a blue sign and a Jewish name.  Let's not become the PC police.  And I disagree with the canidate's wife's complaints that he left his job as a legislator take another job in the military, but it's a valid point...or at least not an offensive one.

13 moveon can go to hell. They're pushing Rick Noriega for senator in TX, and he went "awol" serving in Afghanistan when he was a state legislator. His wife had to fill in for him. That's the most admirable thing about Noriega, and moveon (votevets) wisely uses that to promote him.

That woman saying Mandel showed more loyalty to George Bush than to his constituents is vile. Serving your country makes you a Bush sycophant? What a bitch.

A little of column A, a little of column B.

But seriously, if you listen to it, the canidate is clearly complaining that everyone assumed he was a Democrat because he had a blue sign and a Jewish last name.  (It's a heavily Democrat district.)  I don't think it's offensive to speculate that people assume someone with a Jewish last name is probably a Democrat.

And I could see how if you count on Congressman to represent your district's interests, you would want a Congressman who will actually be there to represent you, as much of a hero as he may be.  Now, I agree the Democratic canidate and his wife clearly don't seem to have a whole lot of respect for servicemen, but the point is still valid.

16 Josh Mandel is a good guy. A proud Republican in a Democrat district, this kid doesn't back down from anyone or anything.

His saving grace is that there are a LOT of conservative and orthodox Jews in his district. I was stopped by 2 yesterday who were passing out McCain flyers.

They are petrified of Obama.

During the Tennessee primary, Steve Cohen was subject to anti-Semitic attacks too. Most Democrats decried these ads and Cohen ended up winning.

So I'm inclined to give toetotoetotoe the benefit of the doubt here. Democrats aren't overtly anti-Semitic. (Anymore than ol' Neville was.)

Mandel is a hot commodity in the Ohio GOP.  GOP Jewish war veterans from NE Ohio are kinda rare.

His district is not really a heavily  Dem district, it has quite a few GOPers, including those Orthodox Jews.  Mandel replaced another GOPer who was term limited out (and is the opponent of Dennis Kucinich).

Does Mrs. Dem Candidate really think that voters will punish a guy who served two tours in Iraq?
