American politics has shifted towards the right. There is little evidence to show leftest extremist have taken over the democratic party. For instance the Obama administration is a moderate conservative administration. The extreme leftist of the DU are fighting to keep a moderate conservative administration. There just isn't much extreme left in the mainstream to influence politics. There are extreme leftist at the DU, but the DU is hardly mainstream and note even though they spent 4 years telling us the extreme left would abandon Obama, we're all here fighting to keep him. I just don't see the both sides do it to the same degree. If the extreme left were so intolerant Obama would be toast. The moderate conservatives are winning and have been winning for a long time in national politics.
