This again? Standard straw man arguments of every single DALPA apologist back then. So here we go again: The reps were not too dumb to know what they voted for. The reps were precisely and purposefully put in a very tough position by the MEC administration. That position was to either vote for a TA that did not meet their direction to the administration or the pilots' surveys, or vote down the TA and start again with an all new negotiating committee. The reps made the best of two very bad choices.

I know this from my reps and the reps of other bases as told to me by friends from other bases. There is no question that happened. None.

Feel free to join Karnak and Falcon in defending that MEC administration. Lots of people here remember exactly what happened...despite this occasional attempt to revise history.

Almost all of it very one sided, and some flat out misleading.

Again, nobody said you were. You're the only one making that accusation as shown by the beginning of your post. Most of the DALPA apologists follow this exact same template. Throw out a completely false premise, then put forth a passionate fight against your own false premise. Imagine the coincidence.
