NEW POLL OVERVIEW:<br />
----------------------------<br />
Republicans pushed legislation through the House that would keep alive the Social Security payroll tax cuts for some 160 million Americans but would also require construction of a Canada-to-Texas oil pipeline that has brought a veto threat from the President.<br />
<br />
The Democratic-controlled Senate says the pipeline portion of the bill is DOA!.<br />
<br />
The legislation &quot;extends the payroll tax relief, extends and reforms unemployment insurance and protects Social Security &ndash; without job-killing tax hikes,&quot; Republican House Speaker John Boehner declared.<br />
<br />
House Democrats accused Republicans of protecting &quot;millionaires and billionaires,&quot; and pandering to the Tea Party.<br />
<br />
Obama still insists that the legislation be paid for, at least in part, by &quot;asking the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share&quot; in higher tax levies.<br />
<br />

NEW POLL QUESTION:<br />
