In the Democratic party's all-important quest for power…issues are secondary.
Democrats never campaign on current issues. They campaign on (a) smearing their opponents and assassinating their characters, (b) hyper overreaction, (c) attacking Republican activities as “failed”, (d) instilling fear in retired and elderly that the GOP is doing them a great wrong, (e) instilling fear in the poor and unemployed that GOP is shoring up huge wealthy corporations while dismantling government aid to the needy, (f) accusing Republicans of the very things they are actually guilty of.
What do Democrats do when in power? Grow government on the backs of the citizens, by way of raising taxes to pay for more and more government programs. What do government programs do? Take away individuality and create dependence on the government, which serves to empower the government. Power is the prize.
