Compromise with GOP congress? GOP will FORCE Keystone pipeline through by

attaching it to everything the WH asks for or needs.

Those pushing the claim that there is no difference between the two parties in an effort to depress Dem votes are the ones who will deserve blame for Keystone - though you can be certain they will blame the WH.

either east to Newfoundland area, or west to British Columbia. They got tired of dealing with our gridlock I haven't heard anything otherwise in months. I think it's dead.

I think a Republican congress will pass a simple vote to allow Keystone.

It will pass with significant Democratic support.

Does Obama veto it then?

He will have to make a decision because the bill to cancel the medical device tax will be next also with significant Democratic support.

Does he veto that one?
