Phil Graham did it . . . Ben Nighthorse did it . . . pardon the expression but a Miller switch would drive a stake through the heart of the Democrats. Meantime it's on to Louisiana!

But, there was one big difference. Gramm immediately resigned and ran for re-election as a Republican. Many of the criticisms I have of Jumpin' Jim Jeffords apply equally to the Horse. I think if Miller is going to switch, it will be when he runs for re-election.

In the meantime, if we don't need his vote to be in the majority, I kind of enjoy seeing him frequently poking the Dem leadership in the eye with a sharp stick.

Other good Republicans made the switch as well ... Ronald Reagan, to name but one more!
