He needs to take some plays from the Shas playbook and be the address for helping people with social problems. getting jobs etc. The Ihud Leumi also is getting frozen out of the coalition negotiations. Is there another alternative?goyisherebbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380171052449799815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-20353643701037861682012-02-14T07:44:35.368+02:002012-02-14T07:44:35.368+02:00Amihai, thanks, exactlyAmihai, thanks, exactlyBatyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-66275736267648321512012-02-13T23:38:39.893+02:002012-02-13T23:38:39.893+02:00David Tzohar,

Your vote is wasted on right wing parties which will have no effect on public policy. I think I have said this to you before, but I really think that the ideological right should support the Likud where they are represented by Faiglin, Hotobeli and others.David Tzoharnoreply@blogger.com
