They've observed that being anti-war didn't work, so they switched tactics.

When, in 1980? Because that's the last time the Dem leadership was antiwar and a SHITLOAD has changed in the 45 years since.

You want them to keep beating the same dead horse?

The dead horse they've been beating is unconditional support of a fascist apartheid regime, which was one of the big reasons why they lost to the most unpopular presidential candidate in history the second time.

Another case of equine carcass abuse that cost them is their insistence on "considered voting for the GOP but might not" is the most important demographic and their stubbornly ignoring their own base and stated principles as a result.
