What exactly do you mean? You are not using the term 'liberal' in the completely incorrect common way used in the US, are you? Can we please make a conscious effort on this list to use the term in its more precise way- meaning economic liberty, liberalism/neoliberalism... This is also the way the rest of the world uses it. If we do that. Then yes, the Democratic party is probably the most liberal party in the entire world.
