He was only 58 years old. He had a massive heart attack while working on the voice-overs for "Meet The Press". Unbelievable.
Nobody had the political presence and gravitas he had in Washington. Not George S, not Olbermann, O'Reilly, or Blitzer. While it was a little silly, his ever-present whiteboards during the elections and primaries are practically iconic. I really wonder what NBC will do with "Meet The Press" now, and if I can watch it as faithfully.
I also think I need to call my dad.
Go Bills.
