Democrats spent the 80s and 90s assuming the status was quo.

This was the Golden Age for liberalism. It was the age after the bountiful 80's, but before the communication age started shining light into all the dark corners of our society. People could live in blissful ignorance of societal problems as the just fed and fed from a growing housing bubble.
