In US politics, the right is far, far better at winning elections than the left. This isn’t about personal preference. It’s objective political science.

Look at the most contentious issues in the US: abortion, climate change, taxing the wealthy, gun control, Affordable Healthcare Act.

The Democratic Party platform is aligned with national polling on every one. Every one of those issues has >60% support with voters and the Republican Party has blocked them all.

They play the game to win. And they do.
