"Most of the time they head to the middle."

I'm trying to think of the last moderate Democrat that ran for President.

2008, 2012 - Baraq. Communist.
2004 - John F'n Kerry. Traitor, socialist.
2000 - Algore. Environmentalist whacko.
1992, 2006 - Bill Xlinton. Wholly owned subsidiary of the Chinese Communist Party.
1988 - Mike Dukakis. Inconsequential liberal.
1984 - Walter Mondale. Vice-President to the second-worst President since Reconstruction. Reliable liberal stooge.
1976, 1980 - Jimmy Carter. Anti-Semite, liberal.
1972 - George McGovern. See 1976 without the anti-Semitism.
1968 - Hubert Humphrey. Today, he'd be a Republican.

What was that about going toward the middle again, Chris?

Did you miss LBJ?

He was the one who started the GREAT SOCIETY and the WAR ON POVERTY. Legacies that we’re still paying for today.

1972 - George McGovern. See 1976 (Jimmy Carter without the anti-Semitism.

Actually, after his Senatorial career, McGovern presided over an organization that saw Israeli settlements as the primary obstacle to peace.

If he had been elected President, McGovern never would have followed the policies of Carter that preserved the climate in which Sadat could make peace with Israel.
