The Dems strategy shifts between 2006 and 2010.
With thanks to DU'er Contrary1.




2006: Democrats listen to the left, oppose the Iraq War, gain control of Congress.

2008: Democrats listen to the left, oppose the Iraq War, run on "hope and change", win more seats as well as the presidency.

2010: Democrats ignore the left, run to the middle, have no issues at all, lose massively.




That pretty much sums it up. Now move left or die.

2. Yep, that was my thought too.
Seems a bit more to the right side these days.
