Zell puts the grumpy in GOP

Apparently for lack of a Republican to epitomize Republicanism, Democratic Senator Zell Miller (D-GA) gave the keynote address at the Republican Convention tonight, delivering a decidedly hostile speech - not just in content, but in tone.

Upon being the keynote pick, Senator Miller also became the focus of a barrage of criticism from the left and several organized internet campaigns. There was also plenty of room for criticism from the right, however; keynote addresses are normally reserved for the rising stars of a party - not retiring and disgruntled members of the other one.

After watching Miller's speech, even Dick Cheney remarked "I'm glad Zell Miller is on our side," putting voice to what the people at home - if not the folks on the convention floor - were thinking: would I let Zell Miller babysit my kids? Not with that attitude.
