"Personhood" failed in Mississippi.  Union-busting was repealed in Ohio.  Right-wing nuts were replaced by liberals in several elections.  Americans are waking up.  This can only be a good thing.

However, don't think the Koch brothers are going to slink off to Siberia with their tails between their legs.  They will come up with some other means of undermining the American Dream, and I expect it will be more sophisticated than the recent Tea Party astro-turf "thing."  This is not the time for the Occupy movement to pack up its tents and go home.  It's time for Occupy to hunker down and get organized.  A toe-hold has been gained.  Let's keep fighting.

The Kochs have seriously underrated the intelligence of American voters, and their paid mouthpieces can rant and froth at the mouth as much as they want to...their audience is ever-dwindling.  some of us can be fooled some of the time...etc., etc.

Keep up the fight.  Check with your local Occupy gathering.  Friend them on Facebook, find out what they need and help out.  They are fighting for your rights in ways the Tea Party can't begin to.
