No New Post Today...144 Days to Go

I will return to our regular programming tomorrow, but today I would like to pause, as EDC remembers the greatest political reporter in a generation, Tim Russert, who died of a heart attack at the age of 58 today. For the last few years, he has been one of the only voices remaining in the mainstream media who has been committed to asking the tough questions.

This blog, and many blogs like it (and better than it), would not exist today were it not for the tireless journalism of Russert, who was able to dig for the tough answers when politicians were hesitant to give them.

You will be missed.
