1. Well, I heard Voinovitch was asking other Pubs to vote no.
I would LOVE to see an up/down vote on Bolton and have it be DOWN!!!!

Enough Pubs against him that Cheney couldn't break a tie!

2. It's come down to this...
We'll now truly see if the old-school conservatives are going to break the party line, and actually not allow John Bolton to pass the vote....

10. Lieberman for sure
And for the worst of all possible reasons: Bolton's support for the Zionist extreme right wing, as if that were all that keeps Israel on the map.

Asshole. :grr:
