Obama was a certrist some people felt to be progressive, and Clinton was also a centrist. Where are these far left successful Dems in modern politics? I say this as someone who supported Bernie, I don't think you can use precedent for modern elections of Clinton, Kerry, and Gore (actually probably the farthest left on any modern Dem candidate) to say centrists perform poorly.

worth noting that two of three actually won the popular vote and that Gore might have won the electoral college too

and Gore had no real alternative, Bill Bradley was not a serious candidate
