The Occupy movement may have faded from the medias eye, but IMHO its message was front and center Tuesday. The election was a big win for its vision -- that ordinary people matter more than Wall Street.
Lots of people criticized the Occupy movement for having no platform. However, that was never the point. Occupy changed the discussion and more importantly helped sway the tide against the conservative narrative that's been dominant since Reagan. In effect the Occupy movement was the true heir to the Boston Tea Party.
