Neil Malhotra, of Stanford Business School, and Yotam Margalit, who teaches political science at Columbia, report on a survey of 2,768 American adults in which they “explored people’s responses to the economic collapse and tried to determine how anti-Semitic sentiments might relate to the ongoing financial crisis.”

“How much to blame were the Jews for the financial crisis?”, with respondents given five categories: a great deal, a lot, a moderate amount, a little, not at all

Among non-Jewish respondents, 24.6 percent of Americans blamed the Jews a moderate amount or more

what the Stanford and Columbia academics find “somewhat surprising” is the partisan breakdown

“Democrats were especially prone to blaming Jews: while 32 percent of Democrats accorded at least moderate blame, only 18.4 percent of Republicans did so

just to restate: In a survey administered by (apparently) liberal academics

Democrats are almost twice as likely to be hostile to Jews than Republicans
