Debbie Wasserman Schultz, as quoted in "Democrats hope to avoid losing Jewish voters in South Florida" by Anthony Man, in Sun Sentinel (6 November 2011)
“
As Jews, we really care about what's in your kishkas. We want to look into someone's heart and know where they stand and that they stand with us. And I've looked into Barack Obama's heart and his kishkas. I know that he feels the issues that are important to us. I've seen what's in his kishkas, and I know that this is a mensch that we have in the White House.
