The best reporting on Sorenson's travails, Des Moines Register, here.
The guy: is not a college grad, lives in Iowa where there is not much beyond agriculture happening, and had a young series of mistakes mainly treading water, financially.
Much of the Tea Party's people story is his story, problems leading to disaffection for "government," in some generic sense, while the Occupy movement is more focused on the real dimensions of why people like Sorenson are put and kept behind the eight ball.

Bachmann's closest aides say that until now, the three-term congresswoman's kitchen cabinet has consisted mostly of her tight-knit family.
"The only person she talks to as an insider is her husband, Marcus, who's a wonderful man, and her son Lucas," said former Minnesota Republican Party Chair Ron Carey, who served as Bachmann's chief of staff last year. "That's really her brain trust."

Ron Carey should know from his extensive and long-term service as a Bachmann chief-of-staff.
