Nightline (abc) just reported Russert had an enlarged hearr. What causes an enlarged heart? - booze, swilling scotch in DC is a pastime. I know because I had an enlarged heart working at 15% efficiency until I quit drinking. On top of that Russert was a real lard ass, just look a his pictures. His weight, probably 320 lbs or more, didn't help him. Don't get me wrong; he was the best of the NBC newsmen, he just didn't take care of himself.

"What causes an enlarged heart?"Congestive heart failure is a common cause. I don't think alcohol consumption is exactly behind this. If anyone disagrees feel free to jump in.

I always that he looked LIKE he was going to HAVE a heart attack......I did not realize he weighed that much. And, as I said hours ago.....Prayers for his family.
