So the Democrats only have two choices. Create their own demographic of reliable voters, or cater to non voters. As we've seen, it's impossible to please everyone. Republicans already have reliable voters, so Dems need to create the same. Non voters can be unreliable, but their stupidity makes them easy to sway. As for creating reliable voters on the left, that can never happen if the left keeps up their refusal to unite. As stupid as right wingers are, they can be counted on to show up at the polls when the time comes.

Well one reason why it can be hard to unite the left is because democrats insist on moving to the right. They campaign like republicans and then when they lose, they claim it's because they weren't republican enough. So they don't gain republican voters (they're already voting for the republican party) and they alienate everyone else. The problem is that democrats cannot embrace the left without pissing off their donors because wealth hoarding runs counter to leftist causes.
