I don't want another 2 party system.

The sad part is the right wing propaganda machine tried to smear them and label them "leftist", and their ignorant sheep obediently believed it.
Very true. They rejected the Democrats handshake.

The Movement has been active for 2 years now. It's not a "dead" Movement by any means. There have been many small victories for protesters as well.

Well that is what we have since other parties are not represented in congress, right? IMO, I think it is good strategy to try to clean up with in. By the way, I am Libertarian and luke warm towards the tea party but I do recognize they have gained seats and that is where the action is, right?

Spoiler
Rahm Emanuel? The mayor of "lib central", the hometown of president Obama? Impossible!

Chicago, July 4: Block Party to Fight Austerity at Rahm
the funny thing is that the same liberals that were against Walker in WISC, and the same liberals praising Rahm in Chicago for doing the same thing
