My guess would be Brian Williams to fill the spot. What say you?
Oops, I put my comment in the wrong thread. My bad. *get over it*
Yeah I don't know. Williams is their regular daily guy.
I hate to say but it seems like f'ing Tweety -Chris Matthews is in line for this.
I really do hope it's someone else. I can't stand CM anymore.
