Zell Miller is a former Jimmy Carter Democrat. Shame on you for slandering him. But that seems to be normal for you.

Zell Miller: Voters should not choose senators legislatures rule? Here's ample evidence that Zell Miller is off his rocker... Zell Miller: Voters should not choose senators legislatures rule? Associated Press WASHINGTON - Zell Miller's maverick tendencies as a U.S. senator reached an all-time high Wednesday when he proposed eliminating the U.S. Constitution's 17th Amendment and going back to the days when senators were appointed by legislatures rather than elected by voters. The Georgia Democrat, who was first appointed to his post in 2000 after the death of predecessor Paul Coverdell and later elected to finish the term, argued the drastic move would help reduce the power of Washington special interests and increase the power of state governments. ''The individuals are not so much at fault as the rotten and decaying foundation of what is no longer a republic,'' Miller said on the Senate floor. ''It is the system that stinks. And it's only going to get worse because that perfect balance our brilliant founding fathers put in place in 1787 no longer exists.'' onlineathens.com
