The OWS movement freed people from the fear and hatred the GOP had stirred up inside centrists.

I think people liked to get their multiple realities back. Multiple realities is what the 99% is. People stopped worrying about the deficit around the same time. The economy improved. I don't know who is hiring, but it seems there is less fear about the economy lately. Like once people got free of the GOP fear machine, the economy immediately improved. I knew the fear the gop instilled in people of the base or the centre was about controlling them and getting them to hate the left. I didn't know fear could be a self fulfilling prophecy, stalling the economy so Obama could not get re-elected.
