We are drilling in Montana (or the leases are under process). There are leases under process for off shore Alaska- one major issue is spill cleanup given the Arctic temperatures that MUST be resolved prior to final approval. I see no issue with drilling off the Florida coast....something that wasn't going to happen prior to the Obama administration for obvious reasons.

Keystone wouldn't be necessary if there was refining capacity closer to the Canadian border (however we all know this oil is NOT intended for American consumption, that it's headed to China....or else why wouldn't they just refine close to the Canadian border and truck it out? They need to have it close to the coast so they can ship it away.) and/or its environmental issues get resolved. Buried pipe sans sarcophagus isn't a plan, as any leak would be difficult to remediate, leading to catastrophe. The lack of environmental consideration should doom the project as is, and until it's rethought and done properly it should not be rushed into. The oil companies are making more than enough profit and can well afford to do it right.
