The National Center for Manufacturing Sciences and the Center for Ecology Research and Training might be boondoggles, and the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary might not have needed $1.786 million for a new exhibit, but they're all located in the must-win state of Michigan, and McCain is on record against all of them...
