Occupy Underground

One thing that gets overlooked was that the Occupy movement was always relatively small and scattered. It got magnified by the media and really hit a nerve with a lot of people in the country, which was what all the buzz was about. It's unfortunate that the movement has had a lot of trouble really connecting with those outside the movement - even those that want to support it. But there aren't really any progressive groups that are good at outreach (which is why the Democratic party ends up winning by default).

I'm hoping that some movement comes along that realizes the importance of communication, coordination, having deep roots in the community, and concrete step towards long term goals. Not sure if Occupy will succeed at this, but at least they're trying, which is more than most.
