I'm still disappointed there wasn't much of a concerted effort to OccupytheVotingBooth.

Unfortunately Occupy was infested by people who hated both parties, and scoffed at the idea of supporting Obama. It could have been... should have been IMHO, a leftwing grassroot version of the Tea Party. The momentum was there. It was never properly channeled into productive action.
