During the concession speech, I felt like the McCain I used to admire (and so wanted to as the Rep. candidate in 2000) was back from the dead.
Some of the people in that crowd, though? Scary.

I wish the popular vote showed more of a mandate. I wish I lived in a place that was celebrating.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

WAHOOOOOO!
For once, I am not having the Get Offa My Lawn reaction to people yelling in the street outside late at night - Democrat HQ for my city is three doors down from me.
McCain's concession speech was very classy and moving. I wonder if he's as irked by the poor sports among his supporters as I am...
