Keynote speaker backs Bush but will be Dem 'til 'day I die'

[russian33]

NEW YORK - Has Zell Miller lost his mind?

Some of his party members think so. Republicans think not. The retiring U.S. senator from Georgia has never shied from the outlandish, but this time is a doozy.

<snip>

“For 12 dark years, the Republicans have dealt in cynicism and skepticism,” Miller said then. “They’ve mastered the art of division and diversion, and they have robbed us of our hope.” Of the then-incumbent president, George H.W. Bush, Miller said, “our commander in chief talks like Dirty Harry, but acts like Barney Fife.”

Today, of that president’s son, Miller says: “No one else can lead this country.”

Since arriving on Sunday, Miller has been so solidly booked for interviews during the four-day convention that his GOP handlers now decline all media requests. He participated in a forum with ultra-conservatives such as Ann Coulter, discussing the impact of conservative books on American politics.

2. Zell is an idiot.

He should be shunned out of the Democratic Party for the rest of his life.

The repukes can keep that washed-up, low-life scum. We don't need people like him in our party.

14. Believe me, that fantasy has run through my mind too

but back to reality: What does this say about the GOP?

10. Zeb's white hood is clouding his sight. He was only Dem to get votes at
