You're right. I didn't mean what I said. I meant that there is significant GOP opposition to Bolton.

2) That's true, so he might not win a vote in the end. But was it damaging because of what it was, or because of who said it?
Both. Had the criticism come from Democrats, it would have discounted. Also, there's behind-the-scenes opposition from key Republicans (e.g., Colin Powell).
