That's a good question and I think you're correct, When the Al Gore lost the presidency to GWBush in 2000 the Dems doubled down and tried desperately to win back the White House for 2004. Considering 9/11, the anthrax attacks, Gulf War 2, Afghanistan, Gitmo, the missing WMD's in Iraq, etc. 2004 was a desperate election for the left. Unfortunately John Kerry wasn't destined to win the Presidency.

But did the Dems move further left? Hell yeah! What could be further left then a presidential candidate that's Afro-American? Well, he could have been gay as well as black. Next time! Betcha by 2020 you'll have a gay democrat running for president.
