1984 wasn't really a left-right battle. If anything, most candidates were acting more conservative--given the times.
Compared to the other candidates that year, Mondale was definitely more to the left than Glenn, Askew, Hollings. Jesse Jackson was more or less the African-American candidates (but not everyone because several establishment leaders endorsed Mondale). Gary Hart was (and remains) an enigma--liberal on certain issues but no so much on others.
