Conflicting feelings on Bolton's nomination

1) bolton getting confirmed and running amok at the u.n. would be great reality show entertainment that might actually grab public attention a la terri schiavo and show what a bunch of dangerous destructionists we have running the country

2) rational, thoughtful, reasonable people desperately need a victory, something to hold on to, something to inspire hope and bolton getting his ass kicked would be hugely uplifting

3) if bolton's nomination is withdrawn, killed either in committee or on the senate floor, or he simply withdraws, i am sure karldubya has someone just as ugly waiting in the wings
