The Democratic Party got in bed with the plutocrats because no matter which party you're in, there's a huge F-ton of money in D.C., and even a Hobbit would have to lose a finger to resist. So Labor and the legacy of FDR became very expendable by contrast. From then on, the party was "left" in name only.

It started under Carter, went on steroids under Clinton, and into hyperspace under Obama. Biden isn't so ambitious, he's just a janitor.
