I’ve never seen anything like that before in America, and its awful. Point is, I think it’d be unwise for the GOP candidates, and the right overall to dismiss the class warfare angle as a singular radical left wing OWS idea. I think it has gained traction, and I think people who don’t identify with the left or the radicalism of it are actually starting to agree with. Which is terrifying.

The polls on OWS seem to agree with your sentiments. That stated, the kids and other idiots occupying the camps will almost assuredly overplay their hands. Whether this affects Obama or not will remain to be seen, given the media will surely cover for him.

The thing I’ve noticed about the OWS movement is that while the campers are certainly fringe, the idea has taken a hold with average Americans.
I don’t know if it favors any particular politician though as almost everybody in my own small orbit doesn’t seem to care for either party, the president, or anybody in congress.
What might ultimately hurt the OWS’ers (and has started to, I think) are the behaviors of the protestors.
