Members of the Democratic Party are known as Democrats. Founded in 1828, slavery was a cornerstone of the party's ideology. A Congressional faction known as [[Blue Dogs]] made up of [[conservative]] Democrats, was largely "shellacked" after it was offered up on the altar of Obamacare by [[Progressive]]s and defied their constituents. In 2009 Bluedogs boasted 44 [[centrist]]s; by 2011 only 8 members. A [[bi-partisan]] core in the House was destroyed.
