The Democrats would love to run against an opposition that wants to legalize drugs.

Are you kidding? That's probably one of their greatest fears, as it would divide their coalition even further.

Please. Legalization of marijuana was a complete failure in this nation in the 1970s and politicians had no problem gathering public support for recriminalization. Ronald Reagan used opposition to drugs as one of his major issues in 1986.
