How exactly will Occupy Wall Street protesters succeed?

Occupy America!
The movement that started in New York City has spread to Chicago, Boston, Seattle, San Francisco and many other cities, growing in numbers every day. (And coming Oct. 15: Occupy London.)
If you’re downtown in any of these cities, you might come across an enthusiastic, passionate group of people riding bicycles, waving signs, banging on plastic drums, tooting Vuvuzelas and chanting — and I’m paraphrasing here — something along the lines of:
“What do we want?”
“Revolution!”
“When do we want it?”
“Now!”
“How are we going to get it?”
Crickets.

Not necessarily - the wastrels are being co-opted by the Communist Party apparatus:

By moving fast and furious, Solyndra and the failure of Obama from the front page.
I’ve become convinced that this is just about the best thing that could happen to the GOP, who on some level has a somewhat disarrayed field of candidates.
There is nothing to do with these protests thingys. They will grown into the most embarassing, backfiring debacle imaginable. They will turn into Anthony Weiner, except for applying to the entire Democrat party. And it reflect on Pelosi, on the SEIU, on all who embrace it. Let it roll.
First thing i thought was underpants gnomes!

From the song Revolution...”If you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you aint gonna make it with anyone anyhow”.
These dipshirts should all go watch the movie Reds or Dr Zhivago to get a peek into the Utopian paradise they are pursuing.
They won’t succeed. Its a momentary distraction. As soon as the cold rain moves in and the locals get antagonistic its going to fold like a cheap tent. I’m giving it another week at best.
Exactly. I was just thinking earlier today that their world view is the mirror image of the Underpants Gnomes’ version of capitalism.
In both worldviews, “Phase 2” needs a little more work.
It’s still early in the northeast. They could have as much as three more weeks of nice weather. They don’t have 9 months of winter like we have here in the Rockies. We already have snow at upper elevations here in Wyoming, for example.
If they do get three more weeks of nice WX in the northeast, tho, when the cold front comes, it comes in with a fury.
All that said, they’re expecting rain Wednesday night in NYC. Oughta tamp down the stench for a little bit, anyway.
Bloomberg saying they can stay indefinately is a clue.
This is now a Dem campaign rally. The depths of the Left know no bounds.
