The real victory today is the headline "DEMOCRATS WIN crucial Bolton vote"
IMNSHO, we should celebrate every headline that includes "Democrats win... " instead of "Senate Moderates win... ", "Republicans lose... " or "Bush loses... " as a major victory in the spin wars.

Democrats Force Delay of Bolton Final Vote
AP - 24 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - Democrats forced the Senate to put off a final vote Thursday on John R. Bolton's nomination to be U.N. ambassador, the latest setback for the tough-talking nominee President Bush has called strong medicine for corruption and inefficiency at the United Nations. Democrats contended the White House had stiff-armed the Senate over classified information on Bolton's tenure in his current job as the State Department's arms control chief, and demanded more information before the Senate can give Bolton an up-or-down vote.
