No.

I cannot believe Tim Russert has gone. I don't watch a lot of celebrities, but today I feel as if we've lost someone in our family.

I loved his smile and his enthusiasm, his aura of compassion. I loved believing he was trustworthy. Today, my brother-in-law and I regretted all those Sundays when we didn't watch MEET THE PRESS.

I feel for those who really did know him. He should not have gone so soon.
