Correct.  And when you talk about political feasibility, you talk about 
power and about contesting that power.

It looks as if the political feasibility window is closing further with 
every subsequent  ICANN meeting.
The At Large members have to ask themselves the question whether they want 
to be mere decoration, legitimizing an industry association, or whether 
they want to create their own separate power base.

Acting from weakness, unorganized, betrayed by  people like Carl 
Bildt,  they first have to create strenght by finding strong international 
alliances and eliminate   from their own ranks what weakens them.
