Bill Clinton didn't run to the center, he ran to the right. Well past the center.
Take that one however far center or right you want to, the point is that's what he had to do to find votes (after successive Dem losses).
At the end of the day, votes is what wins elections. He had to go to the center (or as the other guy thinks, the right) to find votes.
We're going to have to disagree.
I think it was to find voters. At the end of the election they count votes, not donations. If all these left wing ~~voters~~ people that I see on this platform were to actually vote, then wow that would have an effect. But instead they think protest 3rd party or protest no-voting works, when it doesn't. All these supposed informed, logical ~~voters~~ people that are just waiting in the wind for that left platform and then they'll vote. Donations don't sway these people, they want the big left platform, which won't appear because they don't show up and vote.
So what can voters do? Vote for the dems. If you want things to go left, then vote and give dems consistent and overwhelming victories.
Entitled? They try to move a little bit left and they fucking lose. They aren't going to go further left lol. What's that definition of insanity? Doing the same thing and expecting different results lol. In this case it's doubling down and expecting different results - not going to happen. They're going to go to the center to get those votes.
