are important to them. That shows how smart they are imo. They have figured out that their voices are more likely to be heard, locally.

I don't think that was accidental, or random either. All over the country and on college campuses, and anywhere OWS is operating, this topic has been discussed, 'what is the best way for us to take control of our own future'. Start rebuilding the party from the bottom up, as the Right did decades ago.

But my point is, the party leadership knows all of this, it is not because they haven't been told. But they have a different agenda to that of the voters, and have become arrogant about ignoring them, positive THEY know what is best for US.
