For those at work and no access to TV. Tim Russert has passed away at work from a massive heart attack.
My heart is sick. We have the pleasure of knowing Walter Cronkite and I put Tim in the same category professionally and personally. How can we elect a new President without him? Tony Snow said that Tim had "GUSTO". Yes, he did.
What a patriot! I shall miss him terribly.

I heard a little while ago--
I always liked him and respected his knowledge of politics. Such a sudden, sad loss for his family.

WOW what a shock. Having met him a few times during my 33 years working for wire services and newspapers, I would agree that he is in the same category as Walter Cronkite. Some folks had said he was even reminiscent of Edward R Murrow.
Its a real loss for conscientious journalism!
