Tim Russert died..

I just heard that he collapsed and died a couple hours ago. I really liked him, he was a great political reporter. So sad.

Off topic but when you get back, tell us about your GTO. I have had many over the years.

That's sad. He could really dig into the politicians, and get to them as well! He was in an extremely stressful business. Sorry to lose his wit and intelligence! Oh, and I don't think he was a talking head, I believe he did most of his own writing and digging of facts! I watched the special on him last night, what a guy he was. I also found it odd that there were no comments about him from either of the Clintons, unless I missed something.

This is very unfortunate. He was actually one of the more honest and ethical journalists of our day.
