Nearly 50 percent of U.S. Jews approve of President Bush’s job performance, but only 25 percent would definitely vote for him, according to a new poll. More than 60 percent of Jews support Bush’s foreign policy and 33 percent support his domestic policy, according to data collected between January 2002 and March 2003 by the Ipsos/Cook Political Report. American Jewish support for Bush was still lower than his approval rating among the general public, the poll found.
