Zell Miller: Love is in the (h)air

I think Zell Miller has a crush on Maureen Dowd.

The New York Post's Page 6 today reports on Senator Miller's comments on "Imus in the Morning" about Ms. Dowd of the NY Times yesterday. "The more Maureen Loud [sic] gets on 'Meet the Press' and writes those columns, the redder these states get," he said. "I mean, they don't want some high-brow hussy from New York City explaining to them that they're idiots and telling them that they're stupid." He added: "That red-headed woman at the New York Times" shouldn't mock anyone's religion: "You can see horns just sprouting up through that Technicolor hair."

Says Dowd: "I'm not a high-brow hussy from New York. I'm a high-brow hussy from Washington. Senator, pistols or swords?"
