The playbook say to push the bill although it will not succeed so as to rile up the base, so your party may win in the upcoming election. That is the conventional wisdom and they think this strat works more often than not. They are playing percentages.

Politicians may not be numerate, scientifically illiterate and all around functionally illiterate, but they know how to count votes, machine politics, and percentages. You have to give them that.
