A lot is getting done on the ground, against the wishes of of the Establishment- SSM, Minimum wage increase, possibly an ERA coming at some point...and the general voter apathy with the status quo which is opening up other possibilities.

They tried to silence Occupy...but putting a lid on the pot doesn't make the pressure go away.
