Yup... all 37% of those Americans woke up...
The way congress works right now is that a minority of the minority wields power over the majority with the way the filibuster has been used (which is unconstitutional if you want to get real nerdy with all of this).
Also, legislation that takes 2+ years to pass can not honestly be considered "shoehorned."
