He could see over the horizon yet he was still a democrat? Sorry, those two thing contradict each other. Not that he should have been a republican, but if he was so forward looking, I would have expected he’d have left the democrat party.
There are plenty of people hanging onto the democrat party (i.e. Older people) who think it is still the party of the 1950s. It is not. Just go read their party platform.

He did a great amount of good by staying a Democrat. He criticized and scrutinized the Dems to greater effect than had he left the party. As a democrat he woke up a lot of people.
Zel Miller was another one who did more good as a Dem than he would have done had he left.
