Ace, this isn't a difference between Democrats and Republicans - it's a difference between the Congress and the White House. The White House speaks with one unified voice, and that gives Congressional Republicans something to fall in line with, even though in reality, they probably have as many plans among them as the Dems do. The Democrats don't have a similar leader - so they make a plan by compromising and combining the many different goals of many different people.
I think you may be ignoring this fact in order to set the Dems up to fail an impossible standard that you invented, which is speaking with one voice as persuasively as the White House.
