No, the problem socialists have is that most people are smart enough to realize they won't be better off under a socialist regime, to the chagrin of the self-selected vanguard.

I'm not sure most people can actually define socialism, let alone recognize it.

		Exactly. Although even if you can avoid the words they don't understand or were told to be frightened of you'd still have the problem of getting them to vote, even for policies they think would be good for them.
