dems(*DNC) dont want to lose thier only single issue voter cards: healthcare,,,etc. which is why they always try to use it as a carrot, and drops it or half-ass it when they get elected.

Maybe if voters weren't so goddamn fickle, they wouldn't feel the need to do shit like that. If they didn't do that, they'd just never get elected period.

Or they could pass the things they promised when they have the chance like everyone wants and improve people's lives buying themselves tons of goodwill with the voters in the future.

goodwill with voters, yes, but not with their constituents (big business)
