    And in their trips to the centre they keep seeming to forget that they keep shifting further and further right

    Centrists are a curse here

      They. Are. Looking. For. Voters.

      If the people voters want more right, then that’s the will of the people voters. Thus the message: If you, as a leftist, want them to go left then you have to vote for Dems.

        See you have this backwards, they are supposed to change and then they are rewarded with votes.

        If you vote them in before they change, they have no reason to change.

          We can go through the whole history if you want. Every time the Dems go left, they lose. Every single time. So they go to the center to find voters. Then certain people whine “Why are they going center!!! We won’t vote for them!!! Rachet!!” That’s when I say playing Mexican Standoff won’t work. Because they have an out and you don’t. If you want them to stop going center, they have to win first. Because, again, when they lose they go to the center to find voters.
