Large majorities favor both carbon limits at power plants and the XL pipeline.  In fact, 65% support both.

In a further surprise a majority of Republicans--52%--favor carbon limits at power plants, and a majority of Democrats--51%--favor building the XL pipeline.

Meanwhile, the federal government is closed, and the US is heading toward default.
