I'd like to hope something different, but they won't change their behavior at all.

Errr, what would you hope for?

I would like them to move in the direction of Bill Clinton economically, favoring free trade and cutting deficits.  Socially, I don't mind the Democrats being socially liberal, but I just wish they would do it in a less radical fashion.  Liberal democrats still don't understand that they piss off a lot of people with talk about abortion.  You can be pro-choice and still want towards ending abortion.  Finally, on foreign policy, I'm obviously a hawk, so we should move towards a more interventionist foreign policy.
