Karl Rove The strategy risks alienating independents and blue-collar voters.
"Rushing to identify with Occupy Wall Street could well threaten Mr. Obama's re-election by putting off the very swing voters whom the president needs. It could further diminish the president's support from center-left business leaders, already sick of Mr. Obama's class warfare and faux populism. Appearing to condone the crude personal behavior of Occupy Wall Street protestors can also further erode Mr. Obama's standing with culturally conservative blue-collar voters.
"Before they go much further with this courtship, the president and other Democrats need to remember it's always dangerous to associate with people who are just plain kooky."
