Re: Justice Kennedy is retiring

I don't think the Dems have left their core party line behind as far as Republicans have. They've shifted to the left some, but it's not like they've come out full throated behind Sanders using him as a litmus test like Republicans have. Some have done it here and there and seen success, but I don't get the same feeling of Democratism = Sandersism or Clintonism as I get with Republicanism = Trumpism. At least not yet.

A viable center-right party would be grand. Separate viable functional center-left and far left parties would be grand too. More viable parties at all would be great. Right now we've got far, FAR right, and a left(?) party that can't decide whether it's center, left, or socialist. And that's no good for anyone, regardless of where you are.

Well, I'd say that's a accurate summary of where we are, though I think you're understating how far left the left has gone. I'm in my 40s, and I don't recall a time when the parties were as polarized as they are now, and it's all identity politics on both sides.

I stand by my assertion that Democrats aren't going to be drawing moderates or independents. No, I can't PROVE it. But I sense that moderates and independents will just be less likely to vote at all. Or they'll vote third party.
