Tim Russert has died at 58.

It's just shocking, is all. My whole life he's been at NBC news and kind of the face of political journalism for me. I'm going to miss his dry erase boards and it is so sad that he won't get to see the outcome of this election.

God bless his family.

I saw this news on ONTD and thought of you. You're my face to politics. ♥

Yeah, very shocked. Fifty-eight is so totally NOT old. Sigh.

hey, I just added you as a friend, I hope that's ok...I saw you on Obama_daily.

Anyway, I can't believe Tim has died. Yesterday when I found out, I didn't believe it at first. I thought they got the wrong guy. It seems like jsut yesterday on the night of the NC and IN primaries, he was the one who said, "we now know who the nominee is"

He called this race for Barack. And now, he won't be here to witness Barack win it. I just hope that wherever he is, he can look down and see the result. Hell, maybe he already knows who wins.

R.I.P, Tim. <3

That was completely unexpected. I have too gotten used to him because of debate and all. He was always there and I just enjoyed listening to his arguments. I def would miss that.
