claire-obamas-jokerI guess the other the Democrat sellout Ben Nelson’s Cornhusker Kickback was small afterall. According to Politico, Vermont, which is represented by the once-wavering Sen. Bernie Sanders, would receive $600 million over 10 years for its Medicaid costs, according to Congressional Budget Office figures requested by Senate Republicans.

Nelson, who has been lambasted throughout the day, steered only (!) $100 million to his state to cost the full cost of the Medicaid expansion.
