I agree with you. Why would Voinovich not attend the hearings; never say anything to anyone; and then drop a bombshell on the President of the United States and embarass the Republican leaders of the Senate and the Foreign Relations Committee?
It is not like the Bolton nomination is a minor thing. It is a key part of the President's foreign policy of spreading democracy and freedom around the globe to protect American security.
You don't back stab your own President and deny him the people he wants to staff his Administration. I think if the Senate told Voinovich he couldn't have his staff picks, he would throw a fit.
I am just glad that Move America Forward is running radio ads to wake this man up.
These radio ads won't do a thing to change Voinovich. Unfortunately, he's safe for 6 years.
