Did you miss the part where I said "IMO, Reed and the Dems in the Senate will try to ram it through and pass it again just to prove that they can. Secondly, the Dems still own the Senate with a simple majority. I'm not sure that they necessarily need a veto-proof majority, although there is even money that they wouldn't get all of the same Dems to vote for it again. But, the House is definitely out of reach.

Whether they try or not, the Senate Dems have absolutely no chance of succeeding. Like you said, even if they could ram it through the Senate, the House will block it. So what would this accomplish? It would be a wasted exercise and I’d think they’d be considered a laughing stock for trying to ram through something that’s already been deemed unconstitutional.
