People who say that kind of thing wouldn't recognize socialism if they found it swimming in their soup.

More to the point, there are degrees of various political stances. There are no pure (or even mostly) Socialist countries in the world, any more than there are no pure (or mostly) Capitalist countries. In addition, Socialism isn't the opposite of Capitalism. So a move towards Socialism doesn't necessarily mean less Capitalism.

In other regards, Yes, the Democratic Party tends to espouse and push for more Socialist ideas than does the Republican Party. However, both parties support various programs that can easily be labeled as "Socialist".

Labeling major political parties and even most people as "Socialist", "Capitalist", "Communist", etc. is simplistic, and generally indicates a lack of intellectual depth or a political motive separate from actual truth-seeking.

The Democrats are a capitalist party, just like the Republicans. Socialism means a classless stateless society, and would have to be global, so there could not be a Socialist nation.
