Thank you, Sen. McCain
John McCain just gave the best speech of his campaign. No, not because he was conceding and that means my guy won. This speech was the John McCain we used to know. He spoke from the heart and was generous in defeat praising Sen. Obama.
If John McCain had spoken like this throughout the campaign, rather than sinking into the smears and small-minded attacks that characterized this election cycle, we might have seen a different outcome.
In the end, inspiration trumps fear every time. This time, John McCain, you were an inspiration.
To paraphrase an old quote, nothing so much suited him in this campaign as the leaving of it.
