GAINESVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- Former Sen. Zell Miller fell ill while giving a speech Thursday night and was taken to a hospital emergency room. His wife said he had flu-like symptoms.

Miller, 73, was in stable condition at Northeast Georgia Medical Center, according to nursing supervisor Tammy Harbison. She said she did not know what made Miller ill. The hospital said Miller was alert and cracking jokes, but would likely be kept overnight.

there is more for you to do, Zell. America needs men like you. May the Lord bless and heal you.

I just called the hospital. They have no public updates right now.

Thanks for the update. Good to know Zell is feeling better. I'd love to see him at the 2008 RNC convention.
