That's a shocker. He was 58.

Wow. Every time a staple person (actor, news, singer, etc) in our everyday lives past and present passes on, it seems to affect us all in some unique way, at least it does me.

sad very sad I really liked Tim very much. He was one of the few on the major networks that was not so biased though a democrat. Tremendous loss for the news network, I am saddened by this.
I dont feel they will find someone with his objective thinking to replace him....

YOU have to be kidding!???
Russert -at times- was so biased it bordered on lunacy.

First I said not SO biased yet mostly he was fair in my opinion. I really liked him. No im not kidding he is the only of the 3 networks I could handle because of the liberal bias.

Actually, no, he wasn't. For a network TV journalist, and a self admitted Democrat, he was actually pretty fair.
If you want to talk about lunacy, tune in Keith Olbermann on MSNBC.
I'll miss Russert.

Russert had many Olberman moments. Olberman is just plain nuts.

Bias or no, he was about the best there is, and maybe the best in a generation or more. I don't know who'll be brave enough to take that seat on Meet the Press now. I can't think of anyone who can do half as well as Russert, a guy I liked even if I didn't agree with him.
What are the odds of Lou Dobbs going to Meet the Press? Olberman (if they want to kill the show)? Chris Matthews?

No vote for Matthews and Olberman, though great at ESPN, is a joke.

His son on the Today show this morning was very good.
