Zell Miller has set himself up for the most drastic action the Democrats are capable of mounting against one of their own - shunning. Sen. Miller had better make sure that no possibility exists that a criminal indictment against him could be brought on even the flimsiest of grounds. Look what happened to Jim Traficant. And Traficant wasn't trying to espouse an even vaguely conservative line. He just DISAGREED with some of the power Democrats in the House.

It is a tight union, and discipline is firm. Insurrections will not be tolerated. Josef Stalin would envy the control exerted by today's Democrats.

I can relate. It's kind of how us moderate, tolerant Republicans are treated.
