I also think the Dems are shifting more to the left.

There are very few people in the middle anymore.... they place they SHOULD be.

I think that type of polarization is historically a pretty common response after one party has a big White House win. It keeps the average in the middle over time.

I'm in the middle. You just get hit repeatedly with flaming bags of dog shiat from both sides. The concept of "middle" has gerrymandered all over the map. When GOP to the right of me (both fiscal and social conservatives) are called "liberals", it's gone beyond silly. Ronald Reagan would be too left for the GOP nowadays, and Eisenhower would be called a screaming liberal for his social programs!
