This is an acute point. For what's left of what used to be called mainstream Democrats, Obama has been a disaster, using (like his SDS forebears after Vietnam) the party as a resource base for his radical, anti-American hobbyhorses and burning up popular support in the process.
Obama sacrificed dozens of Democratic House and Senate seats and perhaps a dozen statehouses, not to mention hundreds of state legislative seats, to get his Obamacare monstrosity "passed", and to sustain his "executive amnesty" plans re illegal aliens.
Remember, too, that Bill Clinton did the same thing for Hillarycare and "Midnight Basketball" gun control, tossing longtime committee chairman Jack Brooks to the wolves to get his "crime" (not really crime) bill. The wolves were Brooks's outraged east-Texas constituents, whom he sold down the river bigtime to please Goatboy. They gave Brooks, a 30-year incumbent, a fast trip to hell, and his seat to a completely unknown "non-viable fringe candidate" Republican, Steve Stockman, in the 1994 electoral disaster that Clinton surely had to see coming.
When 'Rat high command types get close to a strategic goal, they have zero compunction about tossing their congressmen and legislators over the side.
So what do they think of the voters?
They didn't/don't hate refugees. They just loved/love Fidel Castro more.

That's a good point, too. Biden would be a stronger candidate with less baggage than Beast. If he were already in office and hasn't peed the carpet, he might actually be a fairly strong MOR Democrat, their first since Walter Mondale (disregarding the faux-"moderate" SDS couple, Slick and Beast).
Ask Bill Clinton about letting refugees in when the voters say, NO!
