Steve Clemons on Bolton

It was an enormous miscalculation of Bush to nominate Bolton for the U.N. job because his background and profile completely offend the sensibilities of those who value principled and reasonable American leadership in the world. Republican internationalists do not like John Bolton, and when such matters as "serial abuse" and "loose cannon" behavior" are tossed into the mix, Republican Senators are being asked to choke down a candidate that is antithetical in the whole to their beliefs.
