The bulk are waaaaaaaay overly optimistic. They can’t see what’s already begun, and what’s coming, because they’re too into it and can’t step back and look objectively.

What a useless article in the absence of context.  It would have been helpful to have some sense about the type of practice each respondent had.  And since when is 1.3% considered fairly representative.  Would you call an election with only 1.3% of the vote in?
