DU and OWS
If the Democrat party rejects OWS and/or OWS rejects the Democrat party will OWS essentially become a 3rd party whose advocacy is forbidden?

Truth be told I'm ambivalent. I stated a few times the Democrats need their version of the Tea Party to get rid of the chaff in favor of sound progressive kernels but as much as I want to glom onto OWS I think their presumed rejection of political solutions will correspondingly leave them politically impotent. The TP primaried-out quite a few RINOs by their reckoning but the OWS crowd seems content to leave our DINOs unmolested in favor of being their own entity.

Does that make them the second Green Party vis-a-vis DU rules?

Thank-you!

1. Interesting hypothetical question but
I don't think this is something we have to concern ourselves with unless OWS actually becomes a political party.

BTW, it's "Democratic" party.
