As we told you earlier, an article in the Boston Globe this morning suggests that Sen. Chafee (R) or Rhode Island was sending signals he might vote against the nomination of John Bolton as UN ambassador.
(Steve Clemons has some good commentary on this latest development.)
But I hear from a senate source that Chafee aides are busily trying to walk back the Globe story, telling reporters and fellow Republicans that he’s actually leaning toward casting a vote in Bolton’s favor.
So hard to strike the right balance when you’re a senator from a blue state trying to carry the water of tomato-red administration.
