Probably because Democrats are typically driven by emotions and emotional causes. Democrats like to self congratulate themselves for being the "nice", "empathetic", "sympathetic", party that "cares" for the oppressed class and fights the oppressors. Because of these emotional drivers, Democrats conveniently forget to look at the actual results of their policies. Results don't matter for them, only feeling good and ensuring that they appear as "good" people versus those mean, awful conservatives. It's hard for such people to admit that their party's policies have generally lead to a worsening for the oppressed classes that they claim as their personal fiefdom of voters. Lastly, Democrats do not like anyone to question them and when one fo their own does it, that's when the really sharp claws come out. No one wants to lose their supposed "friends".
