I'm sure you and the rest of your "Let's Roll Over and Die Party" are going to have plenty of disappointments the rest of your lives.
I'm happy for you, truly I am. Sitting back and doing nothing to change the situation is so much easier then actually doing something...or even trying to do something.
And since you've already come to the conclusion that your doomed, you're never be disappointed politically. You might not be happy but hey, that's just one of the minor costs of the "Let's Roll Over and Die Party".
Oh, and what you consider a glib attitude...well, that simply the will and determination to keep up the struggle. I know that concept might appear glib to you but hey, just sit back a coast along with the ride. Where you end up...well, that doesn't matter...you don't care. All your roads lead to doom.
