a great courageous american. if you look at her life and background, she had an incredible, incredible life. what i loved about her is whether on the air or off the air, i mean, she was just fun and full of life. the thing that i remember most about her, she was always poking at me. she d finish a segment with me and we were really going at it and she d go, you don t really believe all that stuff. and she did it with a wink and a smile and also the passion of her convictions. one of the things that we also did, gregg, is we would often bet on, you know, political outcomes. for charity and i have to tell you, every single solitary time i bet her, i lost money to her charity. and so we d often kid each other about those sort of things. for all the years she was struggling with her illness, she would never complain. i d say, how are you doing? how are you feeling, et cetera?
