R.I.P. Tim Russert

[Heather]

I'm so sad! He was the only political commentator I could stand. Very sad. Cannot imagine the upcoming election without him.

Heather,
I agree with you. I came to the US almost 6 years ago and I have learned a lot about politics and the USA by watching Meet the Press.
Very sad indeed. Tim will be missed

Yeah, Florida, Florida, Florida.

(didn't end up with such a smiley face at the time but memorable for sure!)

I'm a little surprised how much it's gotten to me, but he has been on the air since 1991 and I often had the show on in the background on Sundays. I don't like nor do I seek out much political stuff but he was always somehow, safe.

So true Heather...he always did "political analysis" for the common man.
Sunday mornings will not be the same for me.
Coffee + S.Morning w/C. Osgood + Meet The Press.

This election, of any, really needs him. He will be sorely missed.
