The Nazi party never had a majority. A large minority yes, but not a
majority. More important was Hitler's appointment as chencellor.

So why does the "middle" vote Democrat?

Well, in my own case, in the next election, it's the only meaningful
protest against the slide into facism. Don't forget that Hitler was
*elected.* I used to vote Libertarian, but in the American
winner-take-all
system, that amounts to a wasted vote. Of course, given the present
state
of the Democratic party, it amounts to "Would you rather be hanged or
shot?"
