Jon Corzine has come out swinging at the nomination of John Bolton for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Corzine cites the administration’s “needless confrontations with the rest of the world” and insinuates Bolton’s nomination will weaken international relations:

“He is responsible as much as any member of the Administration for the needless confrontations with the rest of the world … As one of the Administration’s most outspoken proponents of unilateralism, John Bolton could well be a roadblock to addressing any of these critical priorities.”

This was a similar criticism before Condoleezza Rice’s first trip abroad as Secretary of State and will hopefully carry as little weight. In the meantime, we'll have to wait and see what other Democrats are saying.
