Because Jews are liberal and bicoastal as a whole, and naturally gravitate to the Democrats.
Republicans support Israel for their own personal reasons (wanting a Christian-friendly government in Jerusalem, wanting a military bulwark in the middle of the Arab world) but that's not enough to swing Jews over to their side as long as Democrats remain ostensibly pro-Israel.
Now that they seem to be abandoning that premise, things may be much more up for grabs. Of course, open anti-semite Jimmy Carter won a plurality of Jewish votes in 1980, so who knows.
