The vote was 252-161 in favor of Keystone.

Unfortunately, this tells me that if Obama (as expected), vetoes it, there will not be enough votes in the House to override it. We need at least 290 if the whole house (all 435 of them) votes.

Or We’ll need at least 276 if only these 413 WHO VOTED, bother to vote again.

So, nice try, but not even close to have a cigar.

If it comes to an override vote, then the America people need to demand that their Dim reps vote for it.

Politicians don;t want to be on the losing side of an issue.

The GOP has to hammer the airwaves with naming the Dems who are preventing 42,000 good jobs and energy independence.

The Dims know 2016 is right around the corner.

The question is whether they want to tie themselves to the sinking SS Obama.

You just answered my question. I should have read a bit further down.
