That is the main problem with Russert during his interviews. Russert ALWAYS missed the chance for followups.
I believe Russert always give out his questions to his guest ahead of time and never changes his script.
Excellent post!!
I agree completely. At another point in the interview, when talking about the Swift Boat Vets, Kerry said there are always lies and mistruths during a campaign (can't remember the exact quote). Anybody with a functioning brain would have followed up with- "Okay, Senator, what lies did you tell during the campaign?"
Almost. I think he gives out general info on his questions, but only to his extreme leftist anti-American demonrat or RINO guests, never to a Republican, conservative or pro-American guest from anywhere.
