It bears noting that there were more Democrats who opposed it than Republicans who voted for it.

Nope, Dems voted for it 58-0. If only 2 Dems (or 2 of the Obama RINO trio) had voted NAY it would not have passed.

Yes, I know that. I should have added that I was talking about the total Congress, including the House. Eleven Democrats voted against the Stimulus bill in the House, while no Republicans voted for it.

So Congress-wide, you had only 3 Republicans voting for it, but 11 Democrats voting against it.
