Michelle - it doesn't matter if Shumer thought that. A Democrat fundamentally cannot believe in smaller government - to do so would be self destructive and he would find himself without the support of the party. Socialism and the Democratic party strength comes from constituencies that are led to derive benefits from the public sector or those who manage and/or profit from the delivery of those services.
