"....I don't think Bolton will make it to the UN..am I wrong?"
Yes. Unless someone finds pictures of Bolton in bed with a dead girl or a live boy, Bolton will be confirmed. There is no filibuster here.

>>Before this is over, I wouldn't be suprised if this goes to the courts.
As it should, but with our Supreme Court, that uses international law instead of our Constitution, I don't have any faith in them either<<
Why would this go to the courts?
Does anybody really want the courts to decide who the senate can apporove? That would really break down the seperation of powers.

The more I hear from Coleman, the more I like him. WOW!! He has huge potential! We really dodged a bullet when he beat Mondale!! I am almost ready to put him in the same category as Tom Coburn. Notice Coburn is in a category of his own.

Sounds like it.
Perhaps he's going to stick with his previous vote rather than admit he made a complete A$$ out of himself last time.

Pbrown---this doesn't sound good, what is coming out of Voinicich's mouth---talking about how "we look" overseas!!!
He is going to vote against him---we may not have to wait five hours, cause if he votes against, it is over, from what I understand.
