I think you have it wrong, the democratic party has moved to the right, while the republican party has shifted far into the right, leaving those on the left with nowhere to go. Jon Huntsman would do better in today’s center right democratic party, than in today’s far right republican party.
Joseph’s bang on. Who exactly represents the “far” left in American politics these days? I don’t think democrats deserve to be called anything “left”, and only appear so by virtue of where the republicans stand.
