Best Concession Speech Ever?

I've never seen a candidate more gracious in defeat than was John McCain tonight. It was a perfect speech, delivered with humility and grace, sounding all the right notes. Over the past few weeks as his campaign saw victory slipping away, things got a little ugly out on the trail. It was hard for me to recognize the McCain that I once held in high esteem. There was a time I thought he'd make a fine president. Tonight I believe I was right; he would make a fine president. But it was not to be, and McCain holds no grudges. He made it perfectly clear that he serves his country first. Politics is already in the past and he is ready to join with the new president and get to work. Kudos, Sen. McCain.
