right, but i'm saying the Dems allowed this to happen by spending four decades compromising with Republicans and allowing them to shift the Overton window rightward more and more. They spent all that time making decisions based on what was feasible, rather than doing the hard thing and making decisions based on what was right. Reagan set the trap, Clinton walked right into it, and the Dems have done little but accept their lot in all the years since.
Wish I could upvote twice!
