Tim Russert dead at 58 My mom and I were super excited to see Meet the Press this Sunday! I can't believe it! I LOVE Tim Russert. Even when I disagree with him, he just knows his shit. He LOVES politics. This time of year is his time and you can tell. it was like he was chomping at the bit every morning on the Today Show to say his piece about the campaign. I can't imagine this election without him. Damn, I'm gonna miss him.
