1. He says the fault is his, not their (the voters).
They really need to listen to what he's saying.

3. It's a great concession speech
The crowd is a bunch of douchebags. I always respected McCain, even if I generally disagree with him.

12. The way I see it...
Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 11:44 PM by CRF450
When he was picked as candidate, I guess he was mostly forced to go along with the rethug way of thinking to appeal to the party cause alot of republicans didn't like him from the very beginning and still dont. I commend him for this speech, Palin still gets no respect from me what so ever. She has blurted out sooo much hate through this election.

14. Indeed.
Does she take the prize for "worst VP" ever picked? I think so.

5. Good thing he didn't talk like this during the campaign. Because it would have been a lot closer.

6. Very good concession speech. Kind words about Toot. His most stand-up speech all race.

10. This is the first time that I have felt respect for the man
it was a very gracious speech, and for some reason, I felt he meant a lot of what he said.

I don't think, in the end, he wanted a victory.

17. I said in a thread this afternoon that it would be, but nobody else there believed it would be.
It was not hard to conceive that he would, actually it was easy. I don't know why others were so blinded with partisanship that they could not see it.
