Working Day and Night

Zell Miller(D-GA) is speaking tonight at the Republican convention. He actually introduced Clinton at the Democratic Convention 12 years ago. Why has he chosen to support the Republican party a short 12 years after he supported Bill Clinton?

In an interview Tuesday with NBC's "Today" show, Miller maintained that he was still a Democrat but said that the party has moved "so far to the left that I can't even recognize it." (CNN.com)

What the hell planet are we on? An informal poll of the littleboxes staffmembers, shows that 100% percent of us think that the Democratic Party has not moved to the left since the 1992 election.

Is the entire political spectrum shifting or are we here at littleboxes just insane? Given that another informal poll of our staff shows 100% support for our sanity we are left to wonder about the spectrum shifting.

In other news, we here at littleboxes are completely aghast at the President's (our President's) comment that the war on terror is not winnable. Given that the GOP and Mr. Rove would never advise Mr. Bush to utter such a statement, its utterance leads us to one of two conclusions:
1. The President was high when he said the war on terror is not winnable
or
2. The President is capable of original thought

An informal poll of the staff indicates 60% for option #2, 30% for #1 and 100% for both are equally likely. The President has since gone on to renounce his own comments. Kerry, in his usual electrifying fashion, has come out flailing...talking about how the war on terror is winnable, yada, yada, yada.
