Zell Miller and Joe Lieberman: Two Peas in a Pod: Still

by: admin

Fri Nov 14, 2008 at 10:55:26 AM CST

John McCain appeared for 2,000 folks in Cobb County yesterday to sing his praises for Saxby Chambliss. I'm not sure he had 2,000 people at one of his own rallies.

Well apparently Zell Miller (I thought I would never have to write about him) came out of retirement and the mountains to urge Georgia faithful to vote for Saxby.

"It's good to be among you again," Miller told the crowd, which cheered its approval. "It is critical that we keep Saxby's voice and vote in Washington."

Miller said Chambliss could be the "last man standing" in front of a "far-left agenda" that Martin wants to help the Obama administration push. He zeroed-in on Obama's pledge to increase taxes on higher-income Americans and give tax breaks to most others.

"To steal from Peter to pay Paul, even if it gets Paul to vote for you, is wrong, wrong, wrong," Miller said.

Remind me why Zell Miller was a Democrat. Or am I dreaming that he ever was?
