The party leadership has officially agreed to our demands regarding Senator Miller. I am drained from this long fight but I am glad our message finally broke through. Thank you for staying with me while we held our ground.
Georgia Senator Zell Miller has publicly endorsed President George W Bush for re-election. His action goes against the fundamental values of the Democratic Party and is disloyal to the Democrats of Georgia who have supported him for over 30 years.
As proud Democrats, we request that voters across Georgia and the nation join us in asking the Party to publicly censure Senator Miller, remove him as a super-delegate and rescind his voting privileges at the state and national conventions. We also recommend that Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle remove Senator Miller from all legislative committees. Finally, we would like the Democratic Leadership to ask Senator Miller to work within the Democratic Party in helping influence change and to refrain from further dividing the Democratic Party. At a time when our country is facing significant challenges, rubber-stamping endorsements hardly serves the intent of democracy, inhibits proper dialogue and oversight, and discourages non-partisan consensus building.
This petition will be delivered to Senator Miller and the Democratic Leadership both nationally and in the state of Georgia.
Reaching this level of support has been a long and exhausting process but seeing so many people agree that party loyalty actually means something proves that this effort is worth the toll. We have a clear path forward now because the leadership can no longer pretend that this betrayal is going unnoticed.

The exhaustion of dealing with this betrayal is real but we are nearly at one hundred signatures. Please send this link to anyone else who feels ignored by these actions. We have to keep moving forward despite the frustration.

The man is clearly confused. If he wants to vote for bush he should just quit the party and stop wasting our time.

Keep him away from the convention. We dont need people sabotageing the party from the inside while we are trying to win an election.

He needs to stop acting like he is one of us while supporting the other side. Time to go Zell.

Absolutely betrayed the people who put him in office. He should be shamed for this.
