It depends on which "left" you're talking about - it's not quite so simple. Clinton's 90's administration is frequently (and I would say accurately) described as neoliberal. The democratic party has become much more business and corporate friendly over the past 40 years. I think you'd be right in describing modern-day progressives as the "left" that you are defining here in opposition to neoliberalism. Does that make neoliberalism itself right-wing? Are establishment democrats right-wing if they have adopted neoliberal policies, as many have? Is Clinton now considered to have been a right-wing president by that definition? I think these are interesting questions to ask now as the left, broadly speaking, doesn't have a strong political identity, with many progressives further left of the democratic party and other disaffected voters leaning libertarian.
