"It is official. We have ushered in a new era.

The age of the Jewish Republican, even more precisely, the age of the "frum" Republican has arrived. Not only have orthodox, observant, immediately identifiable Jews entered the enclave called the Republican Party, but they are welcomed. I'm not speaking of Republican voters, I'm referring to people who help in the decision making process, people whose voices are heard, people whose opinions are valued. It is a status that has been evolving over the past decade, it is a phenomenon whose time has come."
