On this we disagree, friend. Zell Miller has been quite consistent in his support of the Dem party, but quite disgusted with its national "leadership." I like him a lot, and think his "Zig Zag" tag is undeserved.
I lived under his Governorship. He talks a good game. He generally talks a good game to ensure that conservatives and moderates keep thinking the left doesn't have total control over the Democrats. All IMO.
Can you translate this into English?
How can you "support" a party and not its leadership? Standing behind the leadership is what "support" means in a national party context, especially for a Senator.
Miller makes Daschle majority leader, and prevents Bush from nominating Federal judges. That's what Miller supports.
