We do not need to abandon any principles, nor do we need Zell Miller as our candidate. No one I've seen on DU has argued for that. Your post is a total strawman argument.
What we need is a foreign policy/defense policy that can stand up to the Republicans. We need a presidential standard-bearer whose position is clear, positive (not just "Bush is a moron") and believable. We had none of these things in 2004. That's why we lost.
We need someone like Bill Clinton: someone who didn't compromise Democratic principles, and who appealed to a broad variety of Americans.
