Look at polling :

Democrats want to protect Medicare/Medicaid, so do the public.

Obama’s healthcare plan (pre-death panels) - 60%+

Democrats are trending towards gay rights and reproductive rights.

Obama’s Stimulus had majority support in the country.

That is all true. But I don’t sense a commitment that would be required to implement many of the proposals listed above. The desire to be re-elected will win out.
