The Democratic Party has no one view on the death penalty. There are many Democrats who are against it and many who are pro death penalty. Democrats tend to have a wider range of views within their own party, while Republicans are more unified in their beliefs, however wrong those tend to be.
Using the US-specific definitions of Conservative and Liberal (which, differ greatly from most of the rest of the world), as a party, the Democratic Party is less conservative than the Republican Party.Now, this obviously also depends on the politicians under discussion. In addition, we usually split a politician's views on economics from those on social issues. So, it is entirely possible to have a politician who holds mostly Liberal views on social issues, and mostly Conservative views on financial/economic issues. And, the inverse is also possible (though, less common).
Look at the source: the Democratic Party's web site (under the related links below):
Democrats and Republicans view rights and freedoms differently. Like with members of other parties, there are a few Democrats who dislike people who hold different views. At least according to their stated views, Democrats oppose racism, pollution, homophobia, and any attempt to curtail reproductive rights.
