Instead of a Hail Mary, this morning FoxNews was running a banner: Fail Mary.

Obama threatened to veto it anyway, so even if it passed, it was an effort in futility — except that it got Dems on the record as voting for or against.
When the issue resurfaces early next year, the Pubbie majority plus some Dems might have enough to override an Obama veto.
Don't think so, 5 of the dems voting for it will be replaced by that pubbie majority leaving only 9 pro-Keystone dems left. 55 republicans plus 9 dems still leave you 3 votes shy of an override.
