The Whitehouse has only just recently said something about the bill, and more specifically it was that "they do not support it" but no official veto threat was given. Obama, in my opinion, is making a political mistake by taking the middle ground. He should say "I WILL veto this" to get the peoples' support, or "I support this" to get the support of his D.C. cronies, but not stand in between.



I wouldn't be concerned about the veto being overturned if we didn't have so many people in the House and Senate that were against the bill. There's not nearly enough support in either House, and while I would applaud Obama (for once) if he vetoed the bill, I fear it may not be enough.



TL;DR I hope Obama vetoes the bill regardless of the outcome of the vote.
