Group hug

Majorly!

That was my reaction when I saw your AV.

I felt so liberated, it sorta fit.

 

[Liar]

...aaaand McCain is conceding.

Well rehearsed, too.

 

[impressive]

Grrrrrrrrr! The same speech, on a 3 second delay, in my ear, totally blows my ability to listen/enjoy what I'm hearing.

 

[Lee Chambers]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand here we go, back to the sex...

Life is good....

Hells yeah! There's plenty of reasons to get naked and wild tonight, but I think this is a REALLY good one!

Final count: Obama 333, McCain 146 and the popular vote advantage is a million!

McCain had much dignity and honor and honesty in his speech conceding the election. He could have won if he'd had that all along. I'm impressed once again with McCain in this moment, but know Obama is best for the US and the world at this time.

McCaine had much dignity and honor and honesty in his speech conceding the election. He could have won if he'd had that all along.

His concession is the most admirable thing I've ever heard him speak.

 

[Corylea]

This is the kind of time when I want to say "Thank you, God," but I don't believe in God.


THANK YOU, SOMEBODY!!!

His concession is the most admirable thing I've ever heard him speak.

Where was this guy during the election!? Maybe future Republicans will learn something about what people REALLY want from our politicians from this campaigning experience?

I hope.

True.

I know, it's really kind of sad. Why can't ALL the fucking politicians be more like this?

Maybe. Hopefully.

I'm glad he's doing this gracefully, at least. I was so disappointed when the mud-slinging started in the first place, because I had high hopes for him before that. I'm sure many people felt the same way. But his speech is actually bringing tears to my eyes, as well.

Admirable, powerful and impressive. Where the hell was that during the campaign?

 

[SeaCat]

That speach truly had class. One of the best I have heard from a politician.

Has this hit the web anywhere yet (no tv here)?

He just finished. However, MSNBC.com is streaming live.

Final count: Obama 333, McCain 146 and the popular vote advantage is a million!

CBS' popular vote ticker is showing a 3 Million vote advantage and climbing as more precincts actually report -- but it's still only about 1.5% of the votes.

Cat

Yes. He went a long way toward redeeming himself. His running mate may be beyond it, we'll see.

 

[THROBBS]

It is still possible that Obama will take as many as 4 more 2004-"red states"

You really think it's still up in the air?
Okaaayyy...

 

[Lee Chambers]

CNN is also streaming live.

Nevada-Obama

338 : 155

 

[THROBBS]

It would be extra sweet if Obama takes Alaska.

Admirable, powerful and impressive. Where the hell was that during the campaign?

I think he started practising it in the greenroom at SNL.
