I accept that they're critical of Obama, but I also feel that they will vote for Obama again. No chance these left leaning OWS'ers will vote republican.
Which to me seems insane, to protest a bail out given by a president that they'll vote in again.
Two of the primary things they are protesting are wealth inequality and the corporate influence in politics. How right is it to complain that they wont give Republicans a chance when that would lead to an exasperation of the problems they are protesting about? They haven't stopped being liberal.
You also should remember that while Obama voted for the bail out, he did so in the oft lauded spirit of "bipartisanship". Note also that because he was able to VOTE for it that he did so as a senator under president Bush.
Yes the OWSers are liberal and probably many voted for Obama. Many will likely hold their noses and do it again just like those on the right are going to do for Gingrich or Romney. Democracies don't generate perfect solutions and it is unfair to say that they are being inconsistent in their protest.

BUT if objects for gratitude and admiration are our desire, do they not present themselves every hour to our eyes? Do we not see a fair creation prepared to receive us the instant we are born --a world furnished to our hands, that cost us nothing? Is it we that light up the sun; that pour down the rain; and fill the earth with abundance? Whether we sleep or wake, the vast machinery of the universe still goes on. Are these things, and the blessings they indicate in future, nothing to, us? Can our gross feelings be excited by no other subjects than tragedy and suicide? Or is the gloomy pride of man become so intolerable, that nothing can flatter it but a sacrifice of the Creator? --Thomas Paine
