1. Don't know. Don't care |

He's Zell Miller and he's a DINO. That's all that matters.

9. What's really funny is ... |

I saw somebody's name on a database once (I've done a lot of temp work over the years, a lot of data entry of names and addresses) that stuck in my head all this time -- Zelline Miller. Of course, I never saw this person who walked around carrying this name, but if I had to bet, I'd bet she was originally from Georgia, and that for some reason, her parents admired Zell enough to name her that. I'd love to meet her parents, if she didn't put bullets in both of them before she reached the age of consent, and shake them and ask what the hell were you thinking? Zelline. I hope she made them pay for that.
I know, I know -- Zell wasn't always a cracked vessel, he may actually have done some admirable things in his career. But to name your daughter after him -- to quote Jon Stewart, Wha?

I don't know about Miller's actual name, but I recall in a cable documentary on Watergate, General Haig said that the group of turncoat, southern Democrats at that time, who tended to vote with the Pubs, were called by those who were less than impressed, "boll-weevils"!
