Zell? Hmm, Well...

"Many receive advice, few profit by it."

There was a story in the Atlanta Journal Constitution yesterday about the Zell Miller/Democratic party rift.  It's the first major newspaper I've seen that has reported on it.  With the exception of a few, the leadership of the party has been surprisingly quiet about Miller's comments. I don't think this is because they're not angry at what he has said, but because they realize how damaging it could be to their 2004 presidential campaign if Miller's remarks are widely publicized. 

If you're unfamiliar with what has transpired up to now, you may want to refer to my October 30, 2003, post, "Uh-Oh," or take a look at this WSJ.com Opinion Journal article which I ran across this morning.

Roger Simon just threw his hat into the ring with Zell.  Lots of comments here, many worth reading.

I think it's becoming pretty well known. Even in CA I'm not seeing the Howard Dean and Dennis Kucinich bumper stickers any more.
