AIPAC Jewish lobby opposes Obama candidacy for president?

On the Chris Matthews Show, Andrea Mitchell speculates that Barack Obama adding Mike Bloomberg as his Vice President would assuage Jewish Democrats reluctant to support Obama.  What does she mean by this?  That unlike Hillary, Obama will reduce military and economic subsidies for Israel?  Because Obama is fiercely opposed to lobbying and regulatory capture, and that includes the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)?  Because Obama opposes Neo-Conservatives whether Republican like Dick Cheney or Democratic like Joe Lieberman?

"I think there is a strain within the pro-Israel community that says unless you adopt an unwavering pro-Likud approach to Israel, then you're anti-Israel, and that can't be the measure of our friendship with Israel." -- Senator Barack Obama
