OWS RIP

That's the assessment from matchless sociological observer Walter Russell Mead.

How the mighty have fallen. The New York Times may still be trying to perform mouth to mouth resuscitation on the decomposing OWS corpse, attributing continuing policy influence sans evidence of any kind to a movement that has all but completely disappeared

Many impulsive people bet on the wrong horse here.  That's fine, except when you are a leader and you bet your institution's credibility.  The damaged credibility is hard to regain.  Granted he's at retirement age, but I wonder if this didn't play a role in Bishop Mark Sisk's retirement.
