One thought I've had is that after a couple of decades of 
marginalization of the left, some remaining stalwarts are those for 
whom their politics is a form of psychopathology: a paranoid, 
conspiratorial public structure to hang their private fantasies on. 
Them, and the more stubborn intellectual mediocrities.

Maybe I'm just being too gloomy.
