If you can make it all the way through this video, you have a much stronger stomach than I do. Have the Glenn Becks and Rush Limbaughs of the world convinced right-wingers that the Democrats are radicals? Because I don't know how they would have come up with that conclusion on their own.
They seem to think that the approval ratings for President Obama and the Democrats are down because America has rejected their "radicalism." But they really don't get it. The right has been firmly in the "against" column since before Obama was even sworn in. The left by contrast is not in a snit because of any radical moves. They're upset because the Democrats haven't been radical enough. The Democrats have tacked right at nearly every turn in a misguided attempt to gain some bipartisan votes (hint: they're not coming). Everyone is saying that Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid need to move to the center. Wrong move. The right will still say "no," but then so will the left. And still, swill like that contained in this video is churned out, with the bizarre notion that the Democrats are "far left." Far from it.
