Help kick Zell out!

[NV1962]

MoveOn takes the gloves off, too.

Here's a selective snip from an e-mail I got earlier today - I think it's a great opportunity to send that piece of you-know-what flying out of his seat so that he can stop calling himself a "Democrat" and start using the correct term: LOSER!

Don't get mad, get even. We don't need Democrats like Zell Miller. Instead, we can elect true progressive champions to the Senate. Luckily, several are running this year. Better still, four of them are women, including Denise Majette, who's running for Miller's seat. Click here to support these four courageous women now.

Dear MoveOn member,

Last night, Senator Zell Miller, a Democrat, gave the Republican keynote address in New York. Miller's brazen prime-time betrayal is shocking. But this week, we're not getting mad. We're getting even.

The fact is, we don't need Democrats like Miller -- he's been selling us out in the Senate for years, voting with the right wing across the board. We can do better. Much better.

This year, we have a great chance to elect a slew of real progressive champions to the Senate -- people whose values and principles we can count on. One of them, Denise Majette, is running for Zell Miller's seat. Another, Betty Castor, just came off a landslide victory in a three-way primary in Florida with huge momentum.

It's probably no coincidence that four of the strongest progressives running for the U.S. Senate today are women, but it's cool.

Check them out:

• Denise Majette is a bright, charismatic African-American Congresswoman from Atlanta, running for Zell Miller's U.S. Senate seat. Although she was not in Congress at the time of the original Iraq war resolution, Majette courageously opposed a second resolution on the Iraq war, voting against it and declaring, "I cannot in good conscience support such a deceptive resolution.<sum> Majette has already made history in Georgia by becoming the first black woman to capture her party?s nomination for U.S. Senate.
  
• Betty Castor won a huge primary victory this past Tuesday in Florida's critical U.S. Senate race, in part because of recent support from MoveOn members. Any Senate race in Florida would be important, but Castor is a particularly appealing candidate. She's a former state Education Commissioner and university president who led reforms of Florida?s poorest schools and expanded health insurance coverage to thousands more Florida kids. Betty Castor is a true progressive with real momentum on her side, and she needs our help now in her campaign against a well-funded Republican opponent.
  
• Nancy Farmer is another terrific champion. She's running for the U.S. Senate in Missouri, a key battleground state. As the current state treasurer and formerly a state legislator, she has a great record of making fair and progressive tax policies. Nancy Farmer is one of the few candidates speaking out about the importance of repealing President Bush's enormous tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. She's running against U.S. Senator Kit Bond, who has accomplished little during his three terms in the Senate while voting with President Bush 98% of the time.
  
• Finally, there is U.S. Senator Patty Murray of Washington State, who was once told early in her political career that she was just a "mom in tennis shoes." Instead of giving up she became determined and started her rapid rise in politics. In 1992 Murray won an amazing uphill battle to become one of just a handful of women in the U.S. Senate. Since then, she has been a leader on key issues from health care to education, and she courageously voted against the war in Iraq. Now she's in one of the toughest races of her career, against a right-wing White House ally. Patty Murray has more than earned our support.

These four women are exactly the kind of brave leaders who can help us take back the Senate and provide the strong voices needed to change the debate in Washington. Support them now, at:

1. I donated earlier today when i got the email....

Yeah, we are going to get even....the smirky slimes won't know what hit them....

:evilgrin:

2. Zell is already retiring

I'm all for supporting the candidates listed above, but doing so won't change a damned thing about Miller.

3. Don't waste any energy: you hurt narcissists by ignoring them

He's so over it's not even funny. He's thrown away his legacy--if he had one--and showed himself to be a dotty old fool and some bizarre atavistic relic of a time best forgotten. Ignore him just like the reactionaries did when they didn't let him near Junior tonight.

He's used and thrown away, just like Linda Tripp.

Spend your precious energy on the future; the election is just two months away.

6. I don't think he cares about legacy....

It was about the attention and the money.....And now he is all washed up....

4. Denise Majette vs Zell Miller What a Crummy Choice

I'm still mad with Denise Majette for the whole Cynthia McKinney thing. Holy! Talk about the lesser of two evils!

[Dookus]

5. She's not running against Miller...

he's retiring this year.
