I always liked him better when he was just funny and not a political "spokesman"...

Maybe he'll get hired by NBC.

They made a run at him for Meet The Press, so I wouldn't be surprised if something is in the works.

I'm surprised he did it for as long as he did. And way more surprised how good of a job he did. I thought he was a cheap replacement and he turned it into legend.

Very interested to see who replaces him. Tons of good candidates. It's not like colbert report where there is no possible way to put a new guy in there.

I liked him. But I never got in the habit of watching nightly.

But you'd always catch some of his best stuff the next day.

How will I know when to be outraged or have self loathing.

As a wiseman has said many times, "That's why there's vanilla, and that's why there's chocolate."

I was surprised it took that long for someone to comment on what I wrote.
