John McCain is released from his demons.
His concession speech shows appropriate humility and sincerity. First time I've liked him.

3. He is no saint, but probably not as bad as he seemed...poorly handled by the Rovians
If he ran any kind of a half classy race and went for someone other than Palin, Obama still would have won, but wouldn't have caused so much anguish from all of the venom they spewed.

5. You think he's happy it's over?
I hope he can rest well. He's earned it.

8. Good, classy speech. He does look relieved, doesn't he? A weight has been lifted from his shoulders.

9. This is honestly a high moment for him.
It's also the best I've seen him at. Where was this McCain during the campaign? He might have fared better.

10. There is a redemption in failure that winners never see.
Or, failure is the shit required for growth. Good luck to him.
