Accepting the phrases “right" and “left" as anything meaningful for the moment (I don’t think that the linear model works frankly, so it is a bit pointless), let us state the problem clearly:
The “left” (moderate “left” anyway) has a lot of ideas that I can live with and support. The problem is that it hardly ever succeeds in meeting its objectives, and fails to deliver the goods for its support base. This is usually, sadly, the story wherever you live in the world
The “right” on the other hand has very few ideas that I would support (maybe some of its law and order platform – I see little value in having large numbers of violent criminals walking the streets), and while it often is successful in delivering the goods to satisfy its base – though it notably hasn’t been lately, see 2008 – that is of no practical use to me.
In other words do you choose what you want but cannot get, or what you never would want in the proverbial month of Sundays?
