I don't see how 2009 will be anything like 1933 or 1965. The Democratic Party has changed a lot since then, just as the Republican Party has. Yes the country will be moving left, but considering how far we just moved right and how much it fucked over our foreign policy, our economy, our credibility, and our image, a move left is the smart thing to do. And if we move too far left, guess what? We'll vote them out of office and go center-right again. I think this has been happening for a long time. We take baby steps left and right, and some times huge jumps, and hopefully they add up to some baby steps forward, maybe, some day.
