"It’s not hard to laugh off a bunch of kids in Guy Fawkes masks, sleeping in the streets for, waiting for…something. But Matt Lewis points out that it’s probably not wise to make the same mistake progressives did with the Tea Party:
As the protests rage, at least one conservative is sounding the alarm. Dan Gainor, vice president for business and culture at the conservative Media Research Center, thinks too many conservatives are making a big mistake by dismissing the “Occupy Wall Street” protesters as “loons.”
“I don’t see anybody taking this seriously on our side,” warns Gainor — who grew up in the 1960s and has attended a few “Lefty protests” in his day.
“Some of them are ordinary people that have fallen on hard times,” he explains."
