Now this should be interesting:

George Galloway has followed through on his offer to testify before Coleman's committee. He arrived in Washington today and apparently will testify tomorrow. Galloway is, to put it mildly, unrepentant.

There are lots of "lawyers" in the House and Senate, but Norm Coleman is a lawyer. It's been a while since he was in the courtroom, and no doubt he's a little rusty. But if he decides to cross-examine Galloway himself, fur will fly. I wish I could take off tomorrow morning (I think Galloway's appearance is scheduled for the a.m.) and watch it--assuming it's televised somewhere.

Finally, events in the Senate are moving rapidly toward a conclusion. Richard Lugar and other Republicans expressed confidence that they have the votes to confirm John Bolton. Ted Kennedy, on the other hand, said today that "Democrats have yet to settle on a strategy for the Bolton nomination." Looks good to me.

UPDATE: Senator Coleman's office advises us that tomorrow's hearing will be webcast. Here is how to access it:

GO TO: www.hsgac.senate.gov

GO TO: "Hearings" - "All Hearings"

SCROLL DOWN to May 17th hearing -- Link for webcasting will be there.
