Speaking as a leftist,
» The number one problem with left politics (or progressive, as some prefer), is that very often those advancing the discussion do not bother to tailor their argument toward the general public. Instead we get a steady stream of preaching to the converted; a use of language that is tailored toward that in-group; a failure to analyze, understand, and address the concerns of the general public; A dogma that is sometimes just as bad as that from the right and an unwillingness to entertain that notion; and worse, sometimes a certain amount of (sometimes restrained, sometimes not) hostility toward the general public. It's the delivery, most often, and not the general message from the left that holds it back. In fact, it is more productive to analyze your own side than spend all your time on your opposition. "Know yourself first" is the start of all wisdom.
