They spent $6 million on his opponent - does that really seem like something they'd do if they liked him?

Biss was their 2nd choice, but he was still preferred over Kat Abughazaleh jewishcurrents.org/aipacs-attac...

Again, they spent $6 million against him. That's not something you do if you're cool with the frontrunner. They hate having prominent Jews who don't support their agenda, so no, I'd bet they'd greatly prefer Abughazaleh over Biss.

But it can buy just enough, within the Democratic Party, to remain viable.
