I’m surprised. The two dems from Virginia split on this one.
Mark “The Android” Warner actually voted to override. Maybe he cold, lifeless, android eyes are finally starting to see the light.
Of course, Tim “The Vulcan” Kaine kept his lips attached to the buttocks of his lord and savior. No surprise there.
We have only been moving bitumen from Alberta oil sands through pipelines for half a century. Don’t you know it is about to explode at any second?
OBAMA HATES AMERICANS WITH JOBS!!!!
it looks like we need 12 COMMITTED Republicans to win election to the Senate in 2016.
*****************
The 2016 Senator Class III slots up for election consists of 10 Democrats and 24 Republicans.
So the GOP needs to hold the 24 existing slots and pick up from the 10 Democrat slots.

I noticed that also but they used an AP pic, don’t believe the WT is moving left though.
The enviro nuts have probably convinced the EPA to get bitumen reclassified as a Class A explosive. :-)
Bump
Mikulski has also announced her retirement in 2016. Except MD is a pretty hidebound Dem state.
Yes, somehow a R gov snuck in last year, but in a POTUS year where the entitlement army is out in force, probably a lock for D senate win.
