Democratic U.S. Sen. Zell Miller of Georgia announced he was endorsing President Bush for re-election, and his fellow Democrats are none too pleased. Consider these remarks on the official blog of the Democratic National Committee:

...as for Zell Miller...

On behalf of many Georgia Democrats, PLEASE accept my apology for sending him to Washington. If I'd have known he would do something so vile as this crap, I would have never voted for him.

And this one:

If the party does not condemn Zell Miller, what is a party for?

And this one:

I can't describe how upset and disappointed I am with Zell Miller! I voted for this turncoat, and it's a good thing he isn't running again, because he'd never win! I've heard of middle of the road, but this guy fell over!

And this one:

THe party really must instruct Zell Miller to stop putting a D after his name. Eject him from the Senate Democratic Caucus and tell him to go home.

It's not like we lose anything by losing him: (1) he never votes with us (2) we're already in the minority and (3) he's a lame duck.

He is a disloyal bastard. Kick him out.

And this one:

Zell Miller ought to just make it official and switch his party affiliation to Republican. What an opportunist! His Bush endorsement seems calculated to sell more books.

I call on the DNC to ask Miller to resign from the Democratic Party. That's a petition I'd sign!
