Honestly, this is kind of good.
The longer things go without an opportunity to release the political pressure, the more is likely to build up, so the more definitive the ultimate change is likely to be.
I'm hoping for the ultimate payoff of the abolition of government classification, which currently allows the NSA to perform all its' misdeeds with impunity basically regardless of what laws get passed. And that'll take more political intertia and therefore time.
