I think your last point is salient, in the same way that it's hard for any legislator to run on a platform to relax prison sentences--no matter how over incarcerated and racist a system is--because it's so easy for an opponent to play on fear.

If the TSA continue on this road of mismanagement and long lines, maybe people would get fed up enough for something to happen. That's a really cynical way to look at it. Or way-too-optimistic, to those who think we'll never be rid of the TSA.
