[quote=Anonymous]There are a quite a few Members of the House and Senate who do not come to Washington with a strong opinion or position about Israeli affairs, and so they are prone to follow the path of least political risk. This is what Members do on many issues that are not among their personal priorities. In cases that involve powerful and well-funded advocacy groups, the political calculation is not necessarily that they would receive contributions and support for voting with the powerful group, but may be about the fear that the group and its supporters would mobilize a lot of money and advocacy against them if they vote against. AIPAC operates in much the same was as the NRA and the other major single-issue lobbying groups in this regard. [/quote]
