    Where and how did the Democratic Party arrive at these positions?

    That’s an extremely complicated question to answer, but I’m sure you have some simple-sounding conspiracy theory that ties everything together neatly if you don’t look too deeply into it. Let’s hear it.

        I guess I haven’t drank enough kool-aid to tie together Howard Dean, Bernie Sanders, and the several examples of Democrats changing positions that I mentioned.

        But I’ll guess it somehow involves the big bad Deep State DNC intentionally sabotaging the glorious majority of Leftist voters who would otherwise dominate political discourse, because they’re just that fucking evil or something.

          Well there is this whole extremely dismissive arrogance kind of thing, but I’m not sure I would call it evil?

          See I was only going for the corporate donor backlash over and during the ACA legislation and the effects of the Citizens United/SpeechNow decisions that came thereafter.

          It’s clear that’s all too much to get into, unfortunately, what with all the contempt.
