One key point in politics is you never have only two possible views. The simplistic notion of left versus right doesn't make sense at all because people have a wide variety of priorities and problems and needs. It's convenient to use those terms, but don't fall into the trap of thinking that they could ever define what's actually happening.
Anyway, specifically in the US in the last few decades, what people call the centrists are actually pro-corporate politicians. They will vote for whatever makes money for big companies. And we don't need people representing big companies.
