I know what you are saying, but I disagree: voters THINK they like leftist policies only because they are cleverly concealed in "moderate/centrist" rhetoric. The best evidence of this is that whenever a leftist runs on a genuine leftist platform, they get creamed (Mondull, McGovern, Dukakoid).

So the only leftists to get elected are people like Clinton (who talks about tax cuts for the "middle class," then doesn't produce) or Kerry (who does everything he can to appear to be a "war hero" and "common man").

You're aren't saying that Kerry will get elected are you?
