Will he take a stand for Israel to enhance his election chances? Maybe, but it would be antithetical to every action he's taken toward Israel up to this point.
My guess is that neither Obama or Hillary Clinton have forgotten the fact that Netenyahu stiffed them both very publicly. It may raise the question of to what degree the U.S., in it's current military and financial situation, should unconditionally pledge support to a government which has shown no cooperation towards our government. Israel's primary objectives seems to have become continuing to seek more financial aid and weapons from the U.S., while pursuing its own political agenda in the Middle East, regardless of our wishes. Benjamin Netanyahu may find that what goes around comes around.
