In order for that to work, folks need to open their checkbooks for the gooduns...

But you're sure right, slowly but surely we're getting there.

Who knows, that bright soul you convince of the wisdom of this plan might in a couple years be a congressman or a Senator, and turn out to be the vote that finally tips the scales in our favor.

Actually you don't even have half of Congress outright.

Once you get to some critical mass among the electorate, a push for a discharge petition to pry it out of committee panics the rest into line.

Getting to that critical mass of electorate disgust is the kicker.
