Quote:Wow, so the Democratic party is liberal, moderate, AND conservative!  This sounds like the party for me!  Tell me more!

 

With a few exceptions in the house and senate the democratic party isn't liberal. They're pretty moderate, and by the standards of mid 20th century they'd be considered conservative.

 

If you really look at what the democrats actually do and think crazy liberal then you're just miscalibrating what liberal actually is.
