Are the Dems moving Left?

The very archetype of moderation on the Dems side has just been overthrown by his own party, and intense anti-War sentiment is more popular among democrats than ever. Are they dropping the Republican Lite approach that lost them the White House and are moving towards the Left?

I think that America is starting to move left, and the Democrats are following that lead.

Perhaps I'm one to think that more government is not necessarily a good thing, especially considering the powers that this current administration has given the government.
What is the typical "Left" stance on the Patriot Act, for instance? I think that we need the least amount of government possible, and I don't exactly know which side of the coin supports that, but I'm inclined to think that neither does, since that would imply not seizing power for themselves.... 
 Peace.
