Thanks go Corker, Schumer can vote to override 0bama’s veto knowing that there are not enough votes in the Senate to override 0bama’s veto. Then Schumer can say “I stood up to 0bama and voted for Israel.” Way to go, Corker!

I think you hit the nail on the head there. Schumer can vote "yes" on the override to grandstand in front of his NY constituency. But he knows he can't get enough 'Rats to go along with him. I'm a bit surprised that so many anti-Iran deal pundits like Joel Pollack are so overemphasizing Schumer's capabilities of bring along enough Democrats if he decides to go "yes" on an override. The knowledgeable folks in Israel are not counting on Schumer.
