I just watched McCain's concession speech and I have to say it was the most genuine and inspiring moment of his entire campaign as well as a great speech all around.
At the same time the crowd booing at Obama was just classless. Sore losers. McCain handled it well, he was stern about silencing them, and I felt bad for him that his entire campaign was ran this way. I can't imagine being at the center of thousands of people booing for weeks on end...that's got to be frustrating.
But tonight we saw the real McCain. I've always held respect for him and his service to the country, and in true form he conceded with dignity and urged his supporters to work with his new president. I hope they heed his advice. All can be forgiven if we can move past the last several weeks of ugliness and work together, yet all will be lost if we cannot get past the doubt and fear in exchange for hope and trust.
This is an important moment in history. Glad to be a part of it.
