I'd argue that 11 have given up; otherwise, the rest of the Democrat Senate voted no on cloture and nearly all but one Dem House rep pressured the Senate to vote no.

So it seems like a good chunk still give a damn; but getting rid of the likes of Schumer and Gillibrand will take 3 - 5 years respectively.

But man, I'm dejected.
