It passed, just not with enough to over-ride a veto.
It did get over 50%.

Nope needs a super majority to pass (60). To over ride a veto they would need 67 votes.

they knew she wasn’t going to win so why vote for something that could be interpreted as pro-American, pro-business, pro-prosperity, pro-jobs when it won’t appeal to the American hating base of the democrats? why give the repubs the victory when Obama is sure to veto it and then he’ll look bad.

That is incorrect. It needed 60 to pass, 67 to override a veto.
