McCain proposes $370 million budget cut for NASA
McCain wants a one-year freeze on all discretionary spending, including NASA. Inflation means this translates into a $370 million cut. Details here:

In my opinion this wouldn't be bad if it was just for the manned program, but instead it's for all of NASA, and I expect in the bloodletting over who bears the most of the cuts, it would be unmanned space that loses.
