"I KNOW JOHN KERRY." Democrat Zell Miller promises do for John Kerry's Senate record what the Swift Vet did for Kerry's Vietnam reputation, as the keynote speaker at the Republican Convention Wednesday. Quotable:
The 72-year-old Miller .. plans to hit Kerry over his political career — one that Miller claims has been spent pushing and voting for far-left issues. "John Kerry's record in the Senate is a miserable one — it is a disgraceful one," Miller charged. "His record is far from the mainstream on nearly every issue. He is where 15 or 20 percent of people are." Miller said many Americans are still in the dark about Kerry's voting patterns — primarily because the candidate himself has avoided discussing it. "Watching the Democratic convention, the bio of John Kerry seemed to be 'I was born. I served in Vietnam. I am running for president,' " Miller said.

"They overlooked 20 years in the Senate. That's where you'll see the real John Kerry."

This will be Miller's second keynote address, but the first ever by a Democrat at a Republican convention. (Hat tip KerrySpot). Posted by Greg Ransom
