Just what I thought. I'm surprised Boris lasted this long.

Didn't know he was still alive. :D

I agree on the Putin sentiment,, that guy is definitely worse than Bush, not because he's more of an idiot, but because he's more Anti-Democratic.

He had a history of heart trouble. For Russia's first actually-democratically-elected President, he did some good things.

From CNN site "an unidentified medical source as saying he had died of heart failure."

Wow, that was unexpected news for today, he really kept a low profile after resignation, most people just forgot about him until now.
