Boston.com / News / Nation / Washington / GOP senator may oppose UN choice: "Senator Lincoln Chafee's office said yesterday that his constituency is ''overwhelmingly' opposed to the nomination of John Bolton as US ambassador to the United Nations, signaling that Chafee is leaning against supporting Bolton in a move that could derail the nomination.
If Chafee, a moderate Republican from Rhode Island who serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, joins with Democrats who are expected to unanimously oppose the nomination, Republicans will not have enough votes to send the confirmation to the Senate floor."
