You're at a 7 with those statements, you should be at a 5. 

There is a difference between achingly deciding that this lousy bill is slightly better than nothing and "announcing it as the finest cherry Kool-aid."

Most of the Left, even the ones who have come to the decision to vote for/advocate for voting for this bill don't like it and hope that it is just the first in a long series of uphill battles.  Almost no Progressive is saying "This bill is GREAT!  Where do I sign?"

I don't happen to agree with them--I would be voting "no" on this bill.  But they aren't sheeple for wrestling with it for 8 months and finally throwing up their hands and trying to make the best of it.  Overly optimistic, maybe, but not sheeple.
