Will the Democratic Party stop following the GOP to the right now?

This is a serious question. I hope so, but I've been wrong before.

Conservatives, even arch-conservatives continue to win Congressional and legislative races. The Democratic Party has now won FOUR Presidential elections with a DLC candidate. Clearly, moving to the right has been/is being rewarded by the voters, and especially by the donors.

Now, more than ever, expect the bottom 60% to be thrown under the bus.
