Shmuley manifests indisputable urges to be honest and warm. But he is a cunning politician. No, he has no "Arab' support. And he for sure confuses Arab with Muslim who would be more in support of school vouchers. Even if Shmuley wins the elections, he will have no role to play in State government such as pushing through legislation to the effect.And Muslim will not support Shmuley because of attacks on the Imam Qatanani. He's going to have to wait a long time to be invited in a mosque. Repentance is his burden. Imam Qatanani is and was never a member of Hamas. A 2008 US court found no evidence supporting these allegations.
