Occupy has a Mayor! [View all]

well that is what de Blasio is being called (New York City mayor as of yesterday):
"Occupy's mayor"

of course Occupy does not engage in electoral or partisan politics, but I like that he visited the encampment, and that he ran largely on a platform of being against economic inequality.

I don't put much faith in ANY politician, but still...

I much prefer him to that idiot Bloomberg.

and I can't find the reference, but another winner - controller? - is said to be an Occupy supporter.
