Obama Campaign Hits McCain Again on NASA in Florida
He Did It Again: In Ormond Beach, McCain Pledges Spending Freeze with No Exception for NASA
“Days after attempting to clarify his ever-changing position on space funding, John McCain returned to the region this morning and reinstituted his call for a spending freeze – without an exception for NASA.
