No, there is a center/center-left side. It's made up of a minority of the Democratic members of the House and Senate... most definitely not including Obama or the Senate leadership. It doesn't have much power compared to the right, but it does exist.
Obama, of course, as you say, governs pretty much like a '90s conservative, except better on certain issues, such as gay rights. But there is a Progressive caucus in the House that's more liberal. Maybe someday they'll even be powerful enough to get something done. Republican gerrymandering makes that a difficult hope, though...
