I don't think District 9 is representative of other Jewish communities in the US. True, Obama will not get 78% of the Jewish vote again, but somewhere between 50-65%, which is unacceptable.

Moreover the difference in views on Israel is not materially different between the two candidates. This election is a kind of referendum on Jews' views toward Obama, his policies against Israel. There's always going to be that contingent of antisemitic Jews who's hatred would give the Nazis a run for their money. Nothing to be done about them. But running through all of this is the fear that the DNC's access to high dollar Jewish fundraising and 'bundlers' may be drying up. This is going to be a billion dollar Presidential election. If Obama loses his court Jews and their money it's going to hurt him.
