I'm pessimistic but not a defeatist. Pulling this off will take vigilance. It appears as though much FUD will be used in an attempt to push a corrupt bill through as quickly as possible. Expect the next draft to appear along with a very small window of time to react. But hey, thanks to the internet combined with the good ol' fashioned telephone, anything is possible.
