They've moved right, we're moving left. The only way to compete, is to join them.
I haven't parsed out who're 'they' and 'we'. Looking at the politiclal parties from without, the Blue Ds are racing leftward while the Red Rs have shifted around a bit but remain right of center.

The compete/join conflation eludes me. Left-right is no more significant than authoritarian-libertarian.
