Seems to me he's continually asked tough questions of both administrations as WH correspondent, not to mention all the work he puts in with blogging and twitter updates too.

What are you trying to put people to sleep? Gwen Ifill is a mega shill and a real snoozer to boot. Who wrote this Gwen Ifill? What are you trying to put people to sleep?

Brinkley has been proven very difficult to replace. Tapper is not the answer, nor is Moran. I think ABC needs to look outside itself, perhaps to Gwen Ifill, to remake the show. ABC made the same mistake NBC is making with Gregory. MTP can't be a Russert show without Russert. It seems to be floundering, as well. Either let Gregory recast the show or find a new anchor. Both shows are shadows of their former selves, and it is a great loss. The show lost its punch with the deeply compromised Stephanopoulos. Brinkley has been proven very difficult to replace.
