Isn't the point of voting Uncommitted to send a message, to provoke a response?
I'm not saying they shouldn't have. By all means apply some pressure, but when doing so recognize that there will be a reaction. Not following up with that with additional pressure, or an organized follow through turns what could have been real pressure into windbaggery.
No offense to you in particular, but this kind of response comes off as defensive and kinda whiny.
