How many FTers voted in the last TB election? How many of the FTers who even care to vote for TB members will even view threads about current TB motions? There are political games, and "putting others on the spot" is just another political game.

How much and what kind of an impact will such political games have? I know that votes for or against this specific motion won't influence me. Perhaps if the motion were more concrete -- something like a suggestion to "reconsider" is not a concrete motion IMO -- then it would impact my voting decisions.
