Susan Collins got a lump of coal

McConnell flexes reelection muscle with $1B gift for Kentucky

Cruz got the Texas Space Cadets, Senator Tester of Montana got a one million nurse training grant.

It seems unfair, stupid really.  All the senators get one vote, and over half of them are GOP.  Mitch and Cruz e likely to generate more anti-GOP votes. Susan is likely going to lose with her lump of coal in contrast. The Mitch earmark likely to be a campaign issue in her election.

Kentucky has a population of 4.4 million and climbing slightly. They benefit from the south west migration, especially Illinois exits. I put them slightly in the small state category, one of the 30 wise senators we need.
