omg... just got in and heard about Tim Russert! No matter what you felt

about him, he was an awesome journalist.

For those of you who followed the primary returns faithfully after every state, do you remember in the last two primaries how Tim was saying maybe they should just stick to the issues and not so much of the "gotcha" moments this GE? I wish I could find that clip because when I heard him say that it was like something just washed over him. It was so refreshing to see him actually say this. I was looking forward to that from him and I was hoping he would set the bar for other journalists to "stick to the issues."

Wow...this is just stunning news.

1. Agreed! Great thread! Thanks for injecting SOME sanity into his tragic premature death.

2. not lately...

he was a talking head..and one that lied us into war. I'm sure there is a soldier who died in Iraq today fighting that war. No big no small.
