Bolton will, I predict, be approved. Remember, last time he did not get out of committee and we never even got a vote. I believe he will have the support of some dems, enough to pass the 60 vote point.
I think he will too but what will happen if the best man ever doesn't get approved?
I wonder. Could the Senate Repbs nuke a Bolton fillibuster? Go for the rule change that makes a Confimation a straight up or down vote?
But.. but... "Cryin' Voinovitch" is now a fan... could he be the only convert?
I will put it this way:
He has until January at least...and if Frist does NOT make sure that he has 60 votes locked in...he needs to postpone, because right now, we need Bolton working the UN, NOT being grilled and insulted by a bunch of primadonna senators.
