For those of you who don't give a shit about McCain's warmth, that's totally fine, BUT

[EastTennesseeDem]

just remember, his followers listen and act upon his every word. This can do nothing but make a few Republicans take a step back. And that is a good thing, any way you spin it.

1. Fuck that piece of shit!

[blueknight]

4. very classy

7. Oh really---

Rev Wright commercials until the very end? Ayres commercials every day? Fuck McCain!

[EastTennesseeDem]

8. That's not my point

My point is humility can't deepen the wound these kinds of things created.

[Johonny]

13. I agree,

It was clear he lost 2-3 weeks ago. He could of lost with class. Instead he tried to win with slime. Pure slime. You can't do that and pretend it didn't happen. McCain was the worst of American politics. I won't forget that and how America rejected it tonight.

2. Yes

if this stops one wingnut and starts the process of working WITH folks across the aisle, that's good.

[nytemare]

3. I think it is a very classy speech.

Actually, much better than the stump speeches he has been giving, which were uninspiring.

[Raschel]

14. Ugh! I thought the speech was horrible. And that he did even TRY to seem convincing.

[arKansasJHawk]

5. Nailed it.

He did EXACTLY the right, good thing. His words were EXACTLY what we needed.

[Enrique]

6. that's exactly right

it's important that he spoke that way.

[JimWis]

9. I agree. He did a good job on his concession speech. It was

important that he did it that way.

[Titanothere]

10. I thought it was a very appropriate speech, show some grace

[RamboLiberal]

11. They don't follow McCain - hell most of them didn't give a damn about him

Did you hear the cheers for Sarah? And how she was the one to get the crowds? That part of the party consider her the leader. Let's see how she handles this. How gracious she is in the coming days. And how gracious the more wingnut parts of the party are.

[Zombie2]

12. His followers listen and act upon his every word??

It didn't sound like that from the crowds reaction. I'm expecting violence.
