Why was it even voted on now. Why not wait until after we get all our Republicans sworn in? miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

I'm sure this all was designed to help save the gal from LA who's gonna lose the runoff next month.

Why was it even voted on now. Why not wait until after we get all our Republicans sworn in? miles The only reason that I can think of is that Senator Landrieu of Louisiana thought that passage of the KXL would enhance her chances in the upcoming runoff with her Republican opponent. I.E. purely politics.

Why was it even voted on now. Why not wait until after we get all our Republicans sworn in? miles In an effort to save Sister Mary in LA. It was a waste of time. It will be waste of time again unless they can attach it to something Obama can't veto. She schmoozed up to Orealans parish for her entire career. But we saw what was in her area of concern post Katrina. Then they all left. Now she is wanting to schmooze up to the petro chemical industry in LA. But those people work for a living so she's SOL.

The fix is already in with the lame ducks. Obama doesn't want Keystone, and the vote will fall 1-2 votes short in the Senate.
But, Mary tried! She sure is loyal to her State!

After the first of the year, there will be at least three new Senators replacing three of those no votes. 62-38

Yep, and for sure the GUNS. thus, the gun show background check crap etc. Can't have a bunch of unpapered, unregistered guns now, can we? All under the guise of "reasonable" or "compromise" on gun control. We cannot give them an inch!

I.E. purely politics. Exactly, or it would never have made it to the floor of the senate. Having a yes vote on this by her name is something she and Reid THINK might help her in the runoff. But I think that her time has come and gone now. Good riddance!

Guaranteed that 60th Senator was told, "Don't you DARE vote for this and put Nomobama on the spot where he has to veto it or sign it!"

I.E. purely politics. That's pretty much it. Of course after January it should coast on through to the Marxist Pig's desk at which time he'll veto it. But that should give the republicans ammunition to stockpile for 2016.

Today was a lifeline for Landrieu. She can start gathering boxes and packing up. The outcome should change next year and put the onus on the Liars desk.

The dems had it figured out who was going to vote yes and who was going to vote no. It has nothing to do with what is right for America and Americans. It's all about the power and control by the socialists. kwg

The fix was in today, and it will come out the same next time also. I am talking about at least three incumbent Democratic Senators being replaced by new freshmen Republican Senators that will certainly vote for the pipeline. 59+3=62 41-3=38 I am also talking about the Republicans taking over the Senate leadership and kicking Harry Reid to the sidelines. Taking control of all those committees. The pipeline bill will be one of the first bills to land on Obama's desk. I hope he is stupid enough to veto it. More ammo for 2016.
