It's pretty much an understood fact that no matter what a Republican does, he won't get much of the Jewish vote for President. That has convinced many candidates to basically ignore the Jewish vote. The Demos know they'll get it no matter what and the GOP knows they won't. That's still true in this election, and, in a way, proves that while Kerry may be an opportunist, Bush is trying to do what he really thinks is right. How do I get from the Jewish vote to Bush having integrity and conviction in his beliefs? Simple. Bush has been the best friend Israel has every had in the White House, and continues to be so, despite the fact that at best he may pull in like 25% of the Jewish vote. Unlike Kerry, he doesn't act in certain way just to get votes. He doesn't pander to small groups to pick up their support. He does what he feels is best for the country, and hopes that the voters agree. You may not like some, or a lot, of what Bush has done, but you have to admit that he has more integrity and conviction in his fingernails than Kerry does in his whole body.
