Once upon a time I always watched Meet The Press. It was one of my only Must See TV shows. (And Curb Your Enthusiasm.)
It really didn't make any difference who was on, or what party they belonged to, Russert was sure to ask the questions that I wanted to ask. And stuff I had never thought of. We often saw those who billed themselves as the best and brightest become mediocre and dim.
Yesterday was typical of the current MTP. Republican prez hopeful John McCain was on and hardly had to flinch to avoid the soft slow pitches. The closest Russert got to the 3rd rail - abortion - was a little twitter re stem cell. And ol' John waffled it so easily.
The day or so before when I knew McCain was going to be on, I e-mailed MTP this question: "Senator McCain, you've said many times that you are 'pro-life'. Of course, you realize that nearly all of us are 'for life'. But the question is, are you anti-Choice? Would you deny American women the right - RIGHT - to make that most private decision, that Choice, with her doctor? - That's a Yes or No question, Senator McCain."
