“We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope. But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.”

Barack Obama, January 8th 2008

Tim Russert 1950 - 2008

Today June 13, 2008 we lost arguably the greatest journalist of all time, Mr Tim Russert. He brought politics into the living rooms of millions of people on Sunday mornings with "Meet the Press" and helped us get answers from politicians and public figures.

He loved politics and you could see it with his enthusiasm as he conducted interviews and how he covered this historic Presidential Election and his coverage was second to none.

I'm sad to see Tim Russert go but he left at the pinnacle of his career and is now a legend among journalists.
