For extreme lefts, it is not. For all others, it is. Lafontaine's only credo always has been: pay for it by taking it from the "rich", raise the taxes for the economy, and if somebody makes a private inheritance: let him bleed for undeservingly receiving the fruits of the labour of his parents once he had brought them under the earth. It's double taxation, but who cares. His policies are about envy from A to Y. So you see, there is some room for other things, too.
This man fulfills all negative cliches rightwingers have about "lefties". Unfortunately he is a very capable speaker, able to set the whole crowd aflame. And he is extremely powerhungry, a (short by size) Napoleon wanting to proove how great he is. He has been on the great stage years before, and by far is no unknown. All do fear him, and rightly so. He simply has what it takes to mobilize the masses. A demagogue par excellence. He also has a private vendetta with his former party, the SPD - and they with him.
