Top GOP Strategist Admits He’s ‘Scared’ Of Occupy Wall Street Because It’s ‘Having An Impact’

The Republican Governor’s Association met in Florida this week and featured pollster Frank Luntz, who offered a coaching session for attendees about how they should communicate to the public. Yahoo! News’ Chris Moody was there, and captured some of Luntz’s comments on Occupy Wall Street.
Luntz told attendees that he’s “scared of this anti-Wall Street effort. I’m frightened to death.” The pollster warned that the movement is “having an impact on what the American people think of capitalism.” So the pollster offered some advice for them about how to fight back. Here’s a few snippets of what he said, according to Moody:

    "That Luntz is admitting the impact of Occupy Wall Street and the 99 Percent and telling closed-door meetings of Republicans that it frightens him is a huge victory for the movement.'

    This is a "victory"? A political hacktivist is worried? Luntz, like others like him, make their money frightening GOP'ers.

    Spin it all you like, but nothing has been changed or gained by OWS. I hate to say it, but OWS reminds me of Letterman's bit: "Is This Anything?".

    Its great people are milling around and keeping the OWS spectacle alive, I mean, anything is better than nothing I guess...but I'd suggest not getting your hopes up as in 2008.

    As I've said at least a dozen+ times, I hope I'm wrong.
