I'd like to see Bolton take a run at the presidency. Imagine him in the early debates, say, New Hampshire. The Dems always try to destroy the best Republicans early on. Let the public see the man that the libs would not let the Senate vote up or down.

And yes leave the ambassadorship unfilled. There may be a similar deal with the SCOTUS--if Stevens and Ginsberg (or whoever) must leave and the Dims won't approve the likes of Janet Rogers Brown then we can make do with a smaller court for a while.

I'm not sure if you've read my earlier posts, but I am with you 100%.

A bold move would be to make a recess appointment to the Supreme Court. Can you imagine? Clinton would have had the stones to do it to the Republicans if we shot down Breyer. I wish the Republicans would do the same.

Excellent point about having a smaller supreme court. I like it.
