Hopelessly Confused

Could one of our Hill geniuses weigh in here? Since Voinovich said that he believed he shouldn’t second-guess the president and he thought Bolton deserved an up-or-down vote in the full Senate, wasn’t he saying he would vote to confirm him — and that therefore this whole thing is over and Bolton has made it? Or since he said he wanted the nomination to get to the whole Senate without a positive recommendation from the Foreign Affairs committee, has he somehow figured out a way to vote No? Helllp!
