if an elected official realizes that he will never get elected again if he votes to ratify such a treaty how likely do you think that he will vote for it.
it will never pass in that form, just like the dmca it will be balanced (in fact given the abuses from the DMCA - like trying to do an end round around back up rights using the anti circumventation clause) it probably going to end up being weaker thent he DMCA.

I doubt most consumers will know what it is about and how it effects them personally. Old people vote so I doubt there will be any huge groundswell.
It would be hard to be weaker then DMCA.
