Zell's my baby. I love him to pieces. He'll be addressing the Republican Convention this summer and I can't wait to hear him. Now that he's retiring, he'll have lots of time to gather the grandkids around the campfire and tell them the scary tale of how the South used to be Democrat until she was driven out of the Party by left-wing nutjobs.
Georgia Sen. Zell Miller, the highest profile Democrat to endorse President Bush for re-election, will speak at the Republican National Convention later this summer, a congressional aide said Friday.
According to the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity, Miller will give his address on Wednesday night of the convention in New York. The Bush-Cheney campaign was expected to make an official announcement later in the day. The convention will be held Aug. 30-Sept. 2.
The speech by Miller, a former two-term governor, comes 12 years after he delivered the keynote address for Bill Clinton at the 1992 Democratic National Convention, also held in New York.
Note to Georgia Democratic Rep. John Lewis: It's not selling your soul for a mess of potage; it's selling your birthright. It's not surprising he can't even get a standard Biblical allusion right. Cultural illiterate.

I was so stunned by the AP reporter's lack of knowledge that I completely missed John Lewis's bungle.
Your post was too freaky. I was surprised anyone else noticed the retardation of this article.
