		Voinovich said during the campaign, referring to his belief that the federal government should be sending more power, particularly over how federal dollars are spent, back to state and local governments.
		Voinovich can be expected to be in tune with most of the legislative agenda that Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott puts forward when the 106th Congress takes office in January.
		Voinovich is unlikely to be the kind of senator who will march in lock-step with the party leadership.

	Power Line: Senator Short Fuse
		However, it's unfortunate that Voinovich subscribed to the Democrats' contention that Bolton should be rejected because he's a tempermental ogre.
		Voinovich called it "bull"-something and ordered his pilot to break the rules and take off.
		And the Enquirer is full of respect for "Short Fuse" Voinovich these days, at least insofar as he shares its view that Bolton should not be confirmed.

	Slant Point: Voinovich: Traitor? Coward? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Move America Forward, perhaps trying to be the right-wing answer to MoveOn.org, released a radio spot that calls Republican Senator George Voinovich a "traitor to the Republican Party" after he held up confirmation hearings over John Bolton's appointment as Ambassador the the UN.
		I would like to think having a strong advocate for U.S. policy and interests would not be something George Voinovich would put secondary to how he was viewed by the political establishment and media elite who he was obviously trying to impress.
		Voinovich has been active in "the game" too long to fall prey to the Democrat's trap.

	WurfWhile: Ohio Senator George Voinovich Gets National Exposure With Little Exposure (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		With his surprising actions, Voinovich showed the public an independent, thoughtful streak (all the more impressive, since he hadn't been showing thought during the hearings because he was absent (it would be interesting to know if his subcommittee schedule really did conflict as he claimed)).
		With Voinovich leading the effort to bring the Bolton nomination to the floor - the nomination he had single-handedly put in doubt - the Ohio senator showed loyalty to his party and president, allaying any national concerns (likely his own) about appearances of rebellion.
		Senator Voinovich is on the Civil Service committee which wants to push for the elimination of the pay scale (the General Schedule), now in place, for the pay-for-performance system in which the General Service pay scale for the employees would be abolished.

		One of our Blend regulars, 'Bean, sent in a whale of a tale about the ignorant asshattery of Ohio Senator George Voinovich, and the shoddy treatment of one of his constituents, a friend of 'Bean's named Tim.
		Basically, Voinovich, in the name of all things holy regarding the sanctity of marriage, sent his constituent a letter lumping homosexuality in with the drug and criminal culture in America today.
		Voinovich is not so reticent, however, about overtly blaming certain family issues in our culture on GLBT people.

		GEORGE VOINOVICH IS BENEATH CONTEMPT: There are lots of reasons to be pissed off about the tax-cut bill the Senate passed yesterday.

		Voinovich said he agreed to vote yes after White House counselor Karl Rove promised him Bush would back the formation of a commission on tax reform.
