So sad about Tim Russert. Does anyone know his political orientation--Democrat or Republican?

Question

He was always so objective on the air. What a loss to the political process and the nation.

Answer 1

Definitely a democrat. What was so good about him is that Russert never let his political affliation enter into his discussions on Meet The Press. A class act.

Answer 2

yes, he worked for a democrat at one time

Answer 3

He was a Democrat I believe.  He worked for Democrats in Congress, that's why I say that.

Answer 4

He was a Democrat. He worked for Moynahan and Coumo. The good thing about Russert was that he did not show any agenda other than getting the truth. He was in a class by himself.
