From Gallup,
Americans are more than twice as likely to blame the federal government in Washington (64%) for the economic problems facing the United States as they are the financial institutions on Wall Street (30%).
Both of these large entities have been the target of protest groups this year. The Occupy Wall Street movement has focused on large financial institutions on Wall Street, while the Tea Party movement continues to focus mainly on the federal government.
Class warfare has been typically used as an election stratagem. And most likely this movement may have also been a maneuver used by the beleaguered and seemingly desperate incumbents to preserve their fragile hold on power which will be contested during the coming elections.
