A nice surprise. Georgia elects good senators.

i like chambliss and isakson. sam nunn was good also.
max cleland was a lousy senator with a chip on his shoulder. im glad he is gone.
What on earth does Cleland have a chip on his shoulder about? I'm really baffled by that remark.
losing his reelection race.
Max Cleland doesn't have a chip on his should about that.
I do.
And so do a lot of other Americans, who wonder how Saxby Chambliss could dare malign the patriotism of a such a hero. Chambliss didn't serve in Vietnam because he had a bum knee. (On which he ran track all through college.) Cleland has no knees any more.
Chambliss won. No question or quibbles about it. And insofar as I wish any elected official well, I wish him well. Certainly, I wish him no harm. But the present doesn't change what's past. And Cleland was the victim of what may be the worst and most egregious slur in the history of American politics. (And yeah, I think the atom bomb ad used against Goldwater ranks right up there, too.)
