It comes from the seating arrangements on the French Assembly (1791) where the most "conservative" (or moderate) party used to sit on the right of the meeting hall and the most liberal (or radical) party did it on the left. However, if you read more about it (p.e. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legislative_Assembly_%28France%29" class="extlink" rel="nofollow">in Wikipedia</a>) you'll see that, even then, people switched from one side to the other... left-right is not an absolute term...
