So, if the F-22 stops being produced in favour of Lockheed's F-35, will various senators now start squealing that Boeing must be given priority in the KC-X competition, due to the impact on Boeing jobs?

Another politically compromised competition in the offing? Their inferior KC-767 failed to win the first KC-X competition, they moaned and whined for a second. The timing of the F-22 / F-35 decision smells a bit.....
