His Holiness Zell Miller dropped from 60% in 2001 to 47%
No matter HOW MANY TIMES people vow on this forum NEVER to trust a DemocRAT again, some gullible freepers will put some southern 'RAT on a pedastal and proclaim he's "more conservative than most Republicans" SIMPLY because the guy makes pretty speeches (never mind his campaigning for ultra-liberals, voting for Daschle, and left-of-center voting record-- pro-abortion, pro-gay rigths, pro-CFR, etc.-- they don't want to be reminded)
It's funny how they worship Zig Zag Zell when even McCain manages to be more reliable (probably because McCain still has an "R" next to his name while Zell is a loyal Clinton Democrat and has no intentions of ever switching party's)
Here are some other Republicans senators who are frequently attacked on FR as "the usual RINOs" and "liberal traitors" even though they've always voted FAR more conservative than Zell EVER has. Voting slightly conservative in Georgia because it's neccessary is one thing, but voting solidly conservative in Illinois takes GUTS.
