Barack Obama has lost almost half of his support among Jewish Americans

A poll shows that 42% of Jewish-Americans would vote for Obama while 46% would consider voting for someone else and 12% said they did not know or refused to answer. In the Presidential elections of 2008, 78% of Jewish voters, or close to 8 out of 10, chose Obama. The recent poll held in April 2010 appears to show that support down to around 4 out of 10.
