Obama is likely pro Boeing as Boeing states are mostly Blue States. (although given the way McCain's numbers are going they may all be Blue States soon)

I doubt it's a good idea for McCain or Obama to try and bully through a vendor for paperclips never mind tankers as the Armed Services Committee and others would have a collective $hitfit.
