I'm a registered Democrat who agrees with Zell Miller that the party has gone downhill.
Kerry is of the unfortunate new Democrat model in which class politics and divisiveness are played up in high relief - to the destruction of civil society.
Small example: Kerry's statement that Bush is "opening firehouses in Baghdad and shutting them in the United States of America" in his acceptance speech.
The cynisicm of this statement is almost indescribable - and poses a mock choice. Fire stations in Iraq and the U.S. are not mutually exclusive.
