Had Obama and the DLC-controlled Democrats acted like real Democrats after they got into office in 2006 and 2008, had Obama gotten real economic/banking and healthcare reforms and real job stimulus, we would be looking at a robust recovery that was working for the average American citizen. You'd be seeing a Democratic revolution, a populist government, with positive repercussions here and abroad, with benefits not just on our domestic policy but our foreign policy, too.
But Obama and the DLC aren't real Democrats.
Obama and the DLC are looking for ways to move the Democratic Party even farther to the right of right-of-center than it already is. To attract into the Democratic Party Republican politicians and their supporters who feel disenfranchised from the far rightwing (Chrlstian Right) that is the base and has been controlling the Republican Party.
Ever since the DLC got control of the Democratic Party in the late 1980s, instead of defending liberalism, instead of actually governing in the best interests of the average American citizen, the DLC (the corporate, the Republican wing of the Democratic Party) has been turning the Democratic Party into the old Republican Party.
Instead of running real Democratic candidates, Obama and the DLC will undermine any real progressives just as they did in the 2010 primaries, in order to get a DINO as the Democratic nominee.
