3. It was far and away the best of his campaign
He sounded almost lifelike.

But I agree that it was classy, even the expression of sympathy Obama's grandmother not getting to see Obama's stunning victory.

11. I admit to being surprised at his gracious concession speech.
If he had run his campaign with this amount of respect, we could still be sweating the outcome. Finally, a Republican campaign of smears, lies, and general disgusting actions has come back to do them in.
