masterblaster72 0 #6 November 5, 2008 QuoteThe man is showing a good side that we knew was there. That's the McCain I supported many years back. Wish we could have seen more of that honesty during the campaign. Very classy speech. Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bones 0 #10 November 5, 2008 His concession speech was everything that Hillary Clinton's was not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauras 0 #11 November 5, 2008 Indeed. I wish the same could be said about the supporters in the ballroom. Undignified, ungracious and clearly disgruntled that their vision of the "right" America has lost its hold on the majority of the citizens and the world.

livendive 8 #12 November 5, 2008 Quote Very gracious. Not a sore loser. Agreed. That was the best concession speech I've seen. I'd be lying if I said the person delivering it didn't bias me, but winner aside, I thought it was very respectful of his opponent and his country. I saw the John McCain I like, as opposed to the one who's been recently playing to what is unfortunately a not too small base. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Pokerstar 0 #14 November 5, 2008 Agreed. If he had been able to connect to his audience on his own terms, the outcome may have been different A very touching, heartfelt concession speech.Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber. --- The Dude --- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #16 November 5, 2008 never had a problem with this Man just with his choices and Party affiliation. he has purposely opened the door to what all of us should view, as a new chapter, of bi Partisan, and constructive Progress,, as this 'malfunctioned' political system, cuts away an 8 year long spinner......and settles in under the reserve of cooperation, Hope, and willingness to work Hard....and deliberately toward a safe and sound stand up landing..jmy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
