McCain conceding now...

1. They just booed Obama...

wow, they have such taste.

[LisaLynne]

2. He's being gracious; his supporters are ...

dickwads as per usual.

[trotsky]

6. He and his campaign are responsible for that.

They fed the hatred, whipped it up, threw all sorts of ridiculous lies at Obama and the rabid base lapped it up.

It's their damn fault.

[TroglodyteScholar]

3. And his classless supporters are booing their new president

sick sick sick

[gratuitous]

4. Actually sounding better than he has for weeks

Maybe this speech has been better rehearsed than his stump speech.

[lonestarnot]

5. More of a man tonight than the last 8 years! Good!

[ivycat]

10. I'm very impressed

so far on his speech....if he could have been like this the whole election, it may have been closer.

[Behind the Aegis]

7. It has happened! CHANGE IS ON THE WAY!

[Blond4O]

8. Fuck you McCain

He still doesn't get it.

[nickgutierrez]

9. Where has this McCain been over the past few months?

This guy sounds like something resembling reasonable - not the rambling, hateful, angry wreck of a man that ran the campaign.

[petronius]

16. I think he's relieved - he can go back to the Senate, and not have

to live every day in fear of being stabbed in the back by Palin...

[Contrary1]

11. A gracious concession speech...

the old John McCain is speaking. Glad to see your return, though a bit late.

God/Goddess/Whatever you believe in, or not...bless this country of ours, bring us unity and peace.

[gollygee]

12. It's a pretty good speech

really

[originalpckelly]

17. Yep, it's much easier to hear him speak when he's not kissing the phantom ass of Jerry Falwell...

[tjwash]

13. Damn good speech...that's the McCain I actually respected 10 years ago.

Good on ya Senator.

[Mister Ed]

14. He's beginning to reclaim his honor. This is a fine and inspiring speech. n/t

[gratuitous]

15. THAT was a half-hearted chant

The crowd has had some time to let the truth sink in. They're just not very enthused. Oops, big hand for Caribou Barbie, manfully blinking back tears.

[gratuitous]

18. Todd Palin looking sad

"Damn, all that DC tail gone like that. Back to Ice Cube, Alaska."
