Call/Fax/or E-Mail Daschle: DUMP ZELL

[WI_DEM]

Zell Miller is an embarrassment to the Democratic party. He not only is endorsing Bush and attending the GOP convention but is going to be their keynote speaker. This tells me that not only does he want Bush to win but I'm sure he wants a GOP congress as well. What is the national party doing about this guy? How much money has he gotten over the years from the Democratic party? Why is he still a member of the Democratic caucus?

Let's deluge the Democratic leader of the Senate, Tom Daschle with e-mails, calls or faxes demanding as Democrats that Zell be ousted out of the Caucus or at least censured for his actions.

Here is Daschle's e-mail address:

1. Why give him the attention?

Zell is retiring, dems already in the minority, most you can do is strip him of MINORITY committee positions. Let the voters see Zell as keynote speaker. He seems a little senile and has nothing of note except being a democrat--and everyone will wonder what exactly is wrong with a guy who speaks at the other party's convention.

3. well ok

we can do nothing as usual.

4. Or

you could do something useful. Punishing Zell for being a crap keynoter isn't among them, IMO.

8. most you can do is strip him of MINORITY committee positions

Let's do it, and disavow him. True, this should have been done long ago, but depriving chimp and the whores saying "LOOK AT THE DEM WHO LOOOOVES BUSH," providing the surrogates the opportunity to at least say, "He's no dem" is better than nothing.

6. My pleasure

I'm dying to meet you. It seems that you and I are always at the same events, so I've probably already met you and don't even know it.

I'll be there with bells on!

7. Never happen, and probably too late.

How many opportunities has Zell given Chimp to say his idiotic initiatives are "bipartisan"? How many stories has his speaking for Chimp generated already? How about his book? Does this have anything to do with the fact that our senate leader has to get elected in a rethug state?

9. My email to Daschle

With the announcement of Zell Miller as the RNC keynote speaker and the fact that he will be the person nominating George W. Bush, it is clear he is no longer a Democrat. I call upon you, as the minority leader in the Senate, to remove him from the Democratic Senate Caucus immediately.
