No, the Democrats are not left wing. It's not semantics. They try to censor mentions of socialism:

 

They also explicitely mention that they're capitalists:

 

Democrats are much closer to Republicans than to leftists.

If anything I think democrats try to have it both ways.

Pushing left wing agendas while pretending to be in the center because they aren't commies. Although, people like Bernie and his supporters seem to be sympathetic or even open to communism.

Basically, left wing is the catch all term for more socialism, communism, big governement, etc. Not just the extreme.

Pushing left wing agenda really I doubt it, both Democrats and Republicans are corparte whores that push the agenda of the people that gave them the most in donations.  Also when it comes to goverment spendig Republicans always spend more because they love to spend money on defense spending and that is pretty much the biggest money pit you can spend money on.  It only benefits a select few but it is very expensive and a lot of people get rich of it.
