The memo also suggests that Democratic victories in 2012 should not be the ABAs biggest concern.
(T)he bigger concern, the memo says, should be that Republicans will no longer defend Wall Street companies. (now that is scary. But have no fear. Republicans won't forget their "corporate masters")
Two of the memos authors, partners Sam Geduldig and Jay Cranford, previously worked for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. Geduldig joined CLGC before Boehner became speaker; Cranford joined CLGC this year after serving as the speakers assistant for policy. A third partner, Steve Clark, is reportedly tight with Boehner, according to a story by Roll Call that CLGC features on its website.

Using shorthand for Occupy Wall Street, the memo said:
"It may be easy to dismiss OWS as a ragtag group of protesters but they have demonstrated that they should be treated more like an organized competitor who is very nimble and capable of working the media, coordinating third party support and engaging office holders to do their bidding. To counter that, we have to do the same."
