Zell Miller was a United States Senator from Georgia, of the Democratic Party, and previously was Lieutenant Governor and then Governor of the state of Georgia. He served one term in the Senate, where he was first appointed in 2000 to fill a vacant seat and then easily won a special election later that same year. A Conservative Democrat, he became increasingly alienated from the Democratic Party's left-wing activist base during his term in the Senate. He resisted calls to change parties though, saying he was "born a Democrat and will die a Democrat". He then wrote the book A National Party No More about his differences with the modern Democratic Party leadership.
