That progressive group you're looking for does exist but it has been absorbed by the democrats. So when you find it you're going to be voting democrat anyway. And if the OWS Party splinters off the parent body like the Tea Party did it will be infiltrated and subverted as quickly as the Tea Party was.
Don't forget that was a legitimate grass roots libertarian organization for... about 2 months.
This country is solidly moderate. We're prosperous and huge -- defending the status quo makes a lot of sense in a lot of ways for a lot of people. We haven't always been a moderate country and we won't always be in the future, but it is a wonderful thing that we currently are and a concerning thing that we're slipping further into radicalization with each election cycle. Prosperity and Moderation are linked. Our very own history shows us that they are. Fringe parties like libertarians and progressives are absorbed into a larger more entrenched body. They are represented and tempered through that absorption -- more than they would be without it. The problem with Republicans is that they canabalized their moderate base during the Bush years and that left the fringe in charge by both design and default. That's happened to Democrats in the past. They 70's and 80's were lean decades for the Democrats.
