He wasn't talking about Democratic voters, he was talking about Washington Democratic politicians, and he's right on the nose. There's damn little these people wouldn't do to stay in power.
There are philosophical and personality reasons that a politician selects one party over the other when he goes into the game, and it's a lot more complicated than the usual class warfare canards. Although there are obvious exceptions, Democrats tend to have a lot more basic power lust than Republicans. The contrast between Bush's attitude toward the presidential election vs. Gore's attitude was just one example. I wish I could locate the actual article, but Bush felt that if he lost he would just go back to what he was doing before. Gore could not conceive of what he would do if he lost. Heck, you saw what he did do.
