The shift to the left is driven by long-term changes like rising educational attainment and generational replacement. Dems are liberal now. There are new groups and ideas. They'll have to be placated. There may be tactical ways to do it, but making them go away isn't an option — PolitiTweet.org

Less obvious are vast changes on the Democratic side, as well. Obama didn't have to talk much about race in '12 because... it wasn't 2013 yet. Today, there's a large vocal progressive left. It can't simply be undone. — PolitiTweet.org

It's worth noting that popularism doesn't actually argue for them to go away. It argues for a filter: subject progressive ideas to a poll-based test, and get rid of the least popular things they advocate. That may be an option for campaigns, but it's not for activists — PolitiTweet.org
