The Senate turned down Keystone XL by just one vote. All the Republicans and 14 Democrats voted for it, but that's one short of 60 votes. You'd think that an old Senate hand like Mary Landrieu, who has been there for 18 years, would have been able to scrape up that one last vote. Surely in 18 years she has down some favors for people. You'd also think that fellow Democrats would give her a vote she needs for survival just out of party feelings of solidarity. I guess not. Joseph Stalin once said "Gratitude is a disease of dogs." Looks like Democrats feel the same way.
Instead of throwing a life ring to a living breathing fellow party member, Senate Democrats let her drown in favor of the Greenie mythology of Global Warming. Nice people.
