Democratic Sen. Miller prepares 'zingers' for GOP keynote speech
This time, a Bush will be beneficiary, not target

Democratic Sen. Zell Miller of Georgia has been tapped to give the keynote address for President Bush at the Republican National Convention.



WASHINGTON (AP) -- Get ready for some more "Zell zingers" from the political convention in New York. But this time, a Bush will be the beneficiary, not the target.

Yes, the Zell Miller who Republicans tapped Thursday to deliver the keynote address for President Bush at their convention next month is the same one who lampooned Bush's father 12 years earlier at the Democratic convention in the same New York arena.

In 1992, Miller was Georgia's governor, famous for his Southern style and populist initiatives. Today, he's a maverick senator months away from retirement -- still a Democrat in name if not voting record.

Well if this is the best they can do with a keynote speaker, then their campaign IS in trouble. I'm sure they think that if they can prop ol' zig-zag Zell up there on the podium, it will look good for Bush that a Dem is supporting him, but little do they know, he just looks crazy. What a joke...get Zell out of our party...

until he retires!

2. Ha ha! what a joke

We showcase Obama reaching out to moderates. The best they can do is Chief FlipFlopper ZigZagZell to reach out to....rednecks? This is going to be great to see. --- another sign of desperation, disarray. The GOP is losing the swingvote fast. And the best they can do is shore up the base.

3. I know there is no comparison to the speech Zell will give to the

outstanding one Obama gave. Zell really makes me sick.

4. He will persuade absolutely NO ONE to vote for Chimpy

Yep, guess this is the best they can do.

What a joke.

5. I wonder why he remains a DEM

and what is his point for remaining one, to torment the party? What would Freud say? :shrug:
