i cannot fathom this general election without Tim Russert, his death is a huge loss to the world of journalism, politics, humanitarian efforts, and the American public as a whole. I can't even explain the loss i feel. i can't imagine a Sunday without Tim. i can't imagine him not being there to grill candidates. i can't imagine him not being there to cut closer to the truth than any other journalist.
America, and the world, are suffering tonight. i have no doubts that the outcome of this election is going to be greatly impacted by this tremendous loss.
his enthusiasm and love for politics were clear. it is a shame that he won't be here to discuss this historic campaign, but i have no doubt that he's watching intently.
i do have something to look forward to in the face of this heartache. that stupid thing i did, where i passed up an amazing opportunity, God is granting me the chance to make it up. Now, if he'll just grant me the strength. i hope i can pull this off, its going to take a miracle - but isn't that the point of what i'm doing? i hope.
get up, get up, turn on ignition
get up, get up, fire up the system
play my little part in something big
i'll accept with poise, with grace
when they draw my name from the lottery
& they'll say 'all the salt in the world couldn't melt that ice'
i'm the one who gets away
i'm a New Jersey success-story
& they'll say 'Lord, give me a chance to shake that hand'
