Chafee Finishes Himself Off

Lincoln Chafee (RINO-RI) has pretty much decided that he's not going to win his primary on Tuesday, and to ensure his loss, he's once again holding up the nomination of John Bolton as UN Ambassador:

A U.S. Senate committee scrubbed its planned vote on Thursday on keeping John Bolton as ambassador to the United Nations, as a key Republican remained undecided on the nomination by President George W. Bush.

Rhode Island Republican Sen. Lincoln Chafee, the only Republican who has not publicly committed to supporting Bolton, sought more time, members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said. Chafee, locked in a tough re-election bid, faces a Republican primary election on Tuesday.

Committee Chairman Richard Lugar would only say a Republican member asked for the delay. He said the committee will meet on Bolton again, but did not say when.

I don't care if the GOP loses that seat. It will be worth it to get Chafee out of there.
