    Once again John McCain has proven how much class and how intelligent he is, thanks America for choosing a terrorist over him, say goodbye to our beautiful nation.



  2. 102

    JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU THAT THE BIGOTS HAVE NO CLASS! GROW THE FUCK UP! YOU LOST!
    TODAY IS A NEW DAY!

    Re: Cybele – I agree with you but um your using a neopets avatar!!!!! LOL



  4. 104

    JillianMillion85 and to you, you have just proved how ignorant you are don't bad mouth Sarah Palin when she has as much experience as Osama our new terrorist president, how embarrassing, I am now planning on moving, I don't want to die thanks to nuclear weapons that him and his friends are prolly buying at this moment with campaign money. I don't like Hillary but at least she loved her country not like this terrorist.

    Re: Its Luisa Bitchez – your an idiot, and obviously no class your probably have ten kids are on food stamps and medicaid, and you cuss how tacky and disrespectful, if you had and class or intelligence you would shut your trap.



  6. 106

    and folks, let's make sure that FAME-WHORE PALIN is NEVER, EVER on a National Ticket again.
    -
    Her LIES - and her THINKING she can get AWAY with her lies - should FOREVER SINK HER.
    -
    Her lying behavior can't handle the national spotlight.

    As much as I don't support and like Obama I wouldn't go as far as some people go by calling him a terrorist or an islamist… He's none of that.
    I don't support his policies and proposals though.

    108

    McCain has always been a class act. I was very proud when I heard this. My heart broke for him b/c it's so obvious how much he loves America. He would've been a wonderful President. I support Barack though; I'm a good loser. I wish him patience, support and success! Hopefully with his help, our nation will be united.

    what, you think liberals can't be as rampant as slimy repubicans?
    -
    Get the hell out, get the hell out — you don't DESERVE the rewards of this election.

    PAY THE BILL ON YOUR PHONY WAR AND GET OUT.

    Re: priscy0416 – Anyone that calls Obama a terrorist is too STUPID to vote - turn in your card - and never, ever vote again.

  12. 112

    Re: LULU~* – your such an idiot, its democrats like you that charge everything on your cards dont have a job and use your child support check to pay everything, why don't you leave, mark my words everything that osama promised is a lie, he is going to help no one but himself, and we republicans aren't losing our houses our have credit card debt because we are smart and I'M NOT A DEMOCRAT, BECAUSE WE CAN'T ALL BE ON WELFARE, SOME OF US WORK!



  13. 113

    audacity of crap [IQof5] says: Barack is an embarassment to the morality of America. May this country rest in peace.
    —————————————————-
    How is President-Elect Obama an embarrassment [I fixed up the spelling there for you, idiot] to the morality of America? If you mean his race, well your shit out of luck, because he can't do nuffin ’bout that. I don't even feel sorry for racists like you, because your character is "morally" bankrupt. You must feel like a real slug, considering a "black person" has been proven to have more intelligence and character than you will ever have, and who has garnered overwhelming support from Americans, and most of the people around the world. What have you done for your country, except take what you can get from it? Did you even vote today? I bet your fat ass never left the chair all day. You can no longer consider "black people" to be beneath you, simply because of their race. This "black man" is a better man, in many ways, than probably all of the men you know. Get over it, and start behaving like a good American, instead of a selfish Republican.



  14. 114

    That speech was beautiful.



  15. 115

    maybe if he would've spoken that way from the beginning then he would have received more votes. but of course, i believe that he made a very poor decision with Palin, and she is what made him fail because it shows that he doesn't use good judgement. i didn't vote because i don't feel that either one would be a great president, but Obama at least has made clear his plans and seems to me that he will take into account his advisors advice and way his options before making any decisions.



  16. 116

    He is a good man just not right for the country right now.



  17. 117

    gracious in defeat! well said, well spoken.



  18. 118

    Re: Kcolli35 – You're an idiot.
    -
    There needs to be a basic, 5th grade level test prior to being issued a voting card — that would negate a good 80% of uneducated, backwards republicans.
    -
    Okay idiot - let's try this - THE FUCKING WAR COSTS 9-10 BILLION A MONTH. GET IT?????
    -
    Have you done NO RESERACH re the war profiteering that has gone on? Or are you more dedicated to watching reruns of Beavis and Butthead?
    -
    So you, idiot, want this war — HOW DO YOU INTEND TO PAY FOR IT???
    -



  19. 119

    I found his speech moving, especially when he "shut up" all of the rednecks that booed Obama.

  20. kjen says – reply to this


    120

    What a class act. I wish he were my president.



  21. 121

    Great speech !



  22. 122

    Re: lolololo – This avatar is a stock avatar on all forums hosted at a very popular forum site (there are THOUSANDS of forums there). I chose it there because I thought it was pretty and I decided to use it here too. Given that people on this site regularly use avatars that are racist, sexist, obscene and downright ignorant, I'll be proud of this supposed neopets avatar.



  23. 123

    John McCain conceeded with amazing grace last night. His speech was moving and I agree with what he said 100%.

    I'm not a Republican, but I truly respect this man. Way to go John!



  24. 124

    I am ASHAMED of our Country - 660 MILLION DOLLARS to BUY the whitehouse - all you OBAMA supporters LOOK out - we are going to fucking rake him over the coals - JUST like you did with BUSH - just wait - I DIDN'T vote for him - NICE to know a MILLION more innocent babies will be slaughtered - LET THE HOLOCOST begin - just wait you Fuck-o's - wait til' we are attacked - the college students were BUSED in in PA - who voted for OBAMA - those who OWN nothing - the MINORITYS who produce nothing voted the the biggest LEFT LIBERAL into office - those who support the KILLING of 8 month old babies - SICK SICK SICK - JUST wait - we will TEAR this fucking moron APART - NOBAMA - CREEPY + DANGEROUS!!!!!!



  25. 125

    Although I didn't vote for him, we have to respect Obama now as the new president. I hope he can do as well as he speaks and I want to believe that he can.

    McCain was very gracious (unfortunately there were idiots in the audience who found it necessary to to boo). I think McCain can continue to do good work as a moderate, bipartisan senator, which is what his record has shown the past years.

  26. Rynne says – reply to this


    126

    That is a class act. Obama should take notes.



  27. 127

    Re: WakeUpPeople

    Smear? OBAMA fucking BOUGHT the white house you fucking MORON - he ran just as SMUTTY of a campaign - difference is - he had MORE MONEY - get it? MORE money = white house - get it - the cost of becoming president —- 600 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!! and the MEDIA dragges the country through the GUTTER to get him elected - don't think the MILLIONS of Americans don't see that - JUST wait - wait til he DOES nothing - ALL lies!!!!



  28. 128

    #125 Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! The better man won. DEAL WITH IT!!! President Obama baby!!!! In your face repubes!!!



  29. 129

    He had to be gracious,the public would have made an even bigger out fool of him if he said what he really meant.

  30. melia says – reply to this


    130

    too bad his audience wasnt as classy.. they booed Obama's name, while Obama's audience clapped for McCain's. Really mature!



  31. 131

    he conceded gracefullly blah blah GO BARACK!!!



  32. 132

    John McCain should have won. Obama is going to ruin this country. The only reason he won is because the blacks and hispanics mistakenly think that because he's black, he is going to miraculously undo all the unjustice they falsely feel has been done to them! So ignorant of them. John McCain would have been a great president!!!!



  33. 133

    class my sweet- sunny ass…did u see the MAVERICK'S about to tear up…he and palin?



  34. 134

    He has more class in his little pinky than you'll ever know, Perez. America got it wrong 2x b4 with Bush; now, again, wrong. There should be a written test for voting Americans to pass, showing their familiar with the candidates, b4 they can vote!



  35. 135

    god i hope he dies..!



  36. 136

    Yes, I agree a very classy concession speech, I was quite touched. This is what makes America different from the rest, this ability to shake hands with your opponent after defeat. Very, very classy.



  37. 137

    Re: SweetPat – She was crazy…like a fox. She had more knowledge of governing than your future President did. She never scared me at all; I knew she was smart. Just has a different way of expressing herself.



  38. 138

    Re: LULU~* – Before you speak, maybe you should check your facts. And don't even BEGIN to attack our military, the ones that are DYING for you to be able to sit here and spew your hatred. My brother is not over in Iraq

    President Obama baby!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!



  41. 141

    Re: WakeUpPeople – [re=3065346] Yes, his campaign wasn't well run. He didn't have his finger on the pulse of the American people and his "America, let's stand up and fight"??? People cared about the economy and losing their homes, not some military thingy.



  42. 142

    Re: LULU~* – lol



  43. 143

    i voted for obama but i still have all the respect in the world for mccain.. he is a very classy man

    ——————————————————
    You, are what is wrong with America. You are selfish, stupid, lazy and vindictive. I hope this uplifting of America begins to ostracize people like you who want to sabotage the American culture, just because you don't know how to cope with your own inadequacies and insecurities. You have opportunities coming your way, including a greater availability to advance your education, and considering that you don't know how to spell the word "government", I would suggest that you not be such an ungrateful and disrespectful dink about it.
    ——————————————————



  45. 145

    John McCain is, and always will be, a class act and a true American patriot.



  46. 146

    He has a lot of class and he has had it all along. Unfortunately, politics get ugly and when a candidate has so many negatives(even though they get dismissed) they should be brought to light. This man is a real leader. Unfortunately most of America didn't see that.



  47. 147

    Re: LULU~* – Well this idiot pays your welfare. And while this war cost a lot idiots spending money they don't have Republican and Democrats aren't helping the economy either. Our economy problems started before the war and we are just now feeling the effects of them. And all you seem to be able to argue right now is about the war. Did you even bother to research any other of the platforms? You do your fucking research.



  48. 148

    They are soooo much classier!!!!!! And Cindy looks 100% better than fugly michelle!!!



  49. 149

    Re: LULU~*
    Haahahaha! This coming from an Obama supporter. He never lied or tried to cover things up did he? Pffft…you keep believing that, sheep.



  50. 150

    Great speech! I was moved and impressed. Indeed he conceded with class.



  51. 151

    Re: geolis

    Michelle is a racist(to the core)cunt. I'd much rather the cold fish that is Cindy McCain be picking out drapes for the white house.



  52. 152


    Congrats to Obama supporters.
    -
    This was the classiest concession speech I've ever seen. I am proud to have been a McCain supporter.



  53. 153

    LULU– you may want to consider some anger management. You are a typical doom and gloom liberal.



  54. 154

    For John McCain, it really is Country First. That was ingrained in him by his family and by the Naval Academy. We are a free country because of selfless men and women like John McCain.



  55. 155

    No one ever ran a campaign against so much media subterfuge. He is a gentleman.

    bella49 [IQof21] says: "…JOE THE PLUMBER is watching U OBAMA…just know that…"
    —————————————————-
    Joe the Plumber is watching Obama???
    I think that's the other way around. It will be Obama watching Joe the Plumber, considering Joe complained to Obama that increasing taxes for people who earn more than $250,000.00 a year, would prevent him from buying the plumbing business he works for. Ha. What a liar. He is neither a licensed nor registered plumber, not even a journeyman, and he can't even pay an outstanding tax bill, which is why the State of Ohio has sued him for $1200.00, so he damn sure is not going to be buying a multi-thousand dollar business. America seems to have a lot of people with absolutely no pride or honesty. Fake. Fake. Fake.

  62. 162

    Congrats to Mr Obama and his supporters. Though I would've preferred a different outcome, America got it's man and he has my support. America is the greatest country on the face of the earth and we have proven once again the power of the vote. God Bless America.

  64. 164

    Re: LULU~* – wow you are some piece of work, you should try taking a civics class and learn something about history and politics because you clearly do not know anything about both, Dems ran house and senate last 2 years and cause housing crisis which turned into financial crisis. Many of the problems facing US were around long before Bush took office. Why don't you look back to when Jimmy Carter was president and see how not great things were with him!! but you are so so blinded and naive to think that one man will change everything, wake up and get off you Kool Aide High!! people like you are what is wrong for America, uninformed and spewing untrue liberal lies you are a disgrace you should leave America.



  65. 165

    Re: JokerBaby – 10 - What is your fucking problem? Your candidate won the election, my candidate conceded with class, so why are you still being crass and disgusting? Grow up.



  66. 166

    Re: WakeUpPeople

    Smear campaign, are you serious????? He could have smeared obama if he didn't have the class he does, he didn't dwell on any of the radical associations, acorn or any of it. That is the biggest joke ive heard since the announcement of the new president last night. I can't wait till 2 years from now when our country is in ruins and all you ignorant idiots have to eat your words……all your CHANGE is not going to be good change.

    Oh and did you notice how Obama couldn't even come out and put his hand over his heart for the national anthem, at that point i had to shut off the tv.

    Its sad that a man that has served our country for 50 years, who has so many accomplishments to his record, who was a prisoner of war for 5 years for our freedom will not have the chance to be our commander in chief as opposed to a former law professer who has no accomplishments and has never had a real job. Way to go America

    AT least he KEPT the COWS quiet! Still: PALIN was his BIG MISTAKE.

Pull your head out of your ass



  72. 172

    fuck those fuckers that were booing last night. if you notice, they all looked like squares, and no life. when obama's audience was shown, it looked like complete unity. every person of color were united. how beautiful was that.



  73. 173

    I was very impressed. Too bad the supporters of both candidates don't have the same class that Obama and McCain show when the tension is over.

  78. 178

    I watched an interview with a woman outside the Obama rally last night, and she said she was happy Obama won because she would never have to pay for a tank of gas or make another mortgage payment again. Is that what we are in store for? People expecting to have everything paid for by the government? That woman scared the shit out of me.

    Re: _Alice_

    Hey Alice. Right back atcha! Yes, I'm disappointed but now is the time for all of us to unite as Americans and do good things for the country. My hope out of this really, is that we can now become a post-racial nation and a country that all citizens feel proud of.

    Re: Smirks – Yes, I agree. I have hope and that's good enough for me. I was up all night last night and when they called it, it was quite a moment. Regardless of how we feel or how we voted, it was an awesome moment to watch.

    Re: Smirks – oxox



  88. 188

    I have to admit, as much as I love Obama and hate the Republicans, John McCain did give a very good conceding speech and I actually felt that he really meant it.

    now, boy did Sarah Palin look pissed at the end there!!!!!!

    and yeah, the crowd? they're a bunch of fucking Neo-Nazis and sounded like a bunch of barbarians booing there. NO CLASS AT ALL.



  89. 189

    As a proud (Caucasian) South African, let me say this. Mr McCain is a phenomenal example of bravery & perseverance, someone that many American & World citizens can look to for inspiration. In my humble opinion, against any other candidate, he would have had this election in the bag.

    The reality is this: Great sports people make it look easy…President-Elect Obama had all the moves, he makes politics look easy. I woke up at 3am South African time to watch the results come in. I cried listening to Mr McCain’s concession speech, such dignity, such class…you cannot buy that.

    But let me tell you this, when I watched Mr Obama & the future first family take that stage, I felt like I was a part of the history being made. I cried tears of joy, not because one of Africa’s fine son’s has become the first African-American president of the USA, but because the man that is Barack Obama has been chosen, by ordinary people – like me, he’s so deserving & I look forward with hope to a future influenced by the action that he inspires in me.

    I feel like I have the power to make a difference, he moves me to take the all important first step, to make a change.

    Yes, we can!



  90. 190

    have grown to like him for his humor. He didn't fight as dirty as he might have and had moments of fairness, and showed heart. His timing was great in bowing out, too.



  91. 191

    That was the most diplomatic and presidential I have ever seen John McCain behave, and it was wonderful. It was impressive, and seeing him looking like he was crying was moving.



  92. 192

    i'm glad he conceeded with class!
    but sarah palin can go home now…and i don't EVER want to see her…again



  93. 193

    very proud of him for being so honorable in the end and excited for obama.



  94. 194

    He did give a great concession speech. I'm glad that they didn't let Sarah talk. And his supporters, like always, showed their lack of class with all of their booing. He looked pretty annoyed with that.



  95. 195

    Wow! Very Nicely Spoken, and I am sure he will give all the help he can to the new President of the United States…



  96. 196

    Re: LULU~* – he is wait and see all the thing she promised are all lies, and whatever you probably don't even vote, and i will continue to vota against terrorist who like to kill babies in their third trimester, u should be ashamed of yourself and should just leave the country. I think its ridiculous that you even talk without knowing, get a degree then a life and go home.



  97. 197

    ALL OF YOU PEOPLE THAT TALK BAD ABOUT MCCAIN SHOULD THINK ABOUT HOW HE SERVED OUR COUNTRY AND PUT HIS LIFE ON THE LINE..THE FACT THAT HE WAS A PRISONER OF WAR AND FOUGHT SO HARD SO THAT WE COULD BE HERE ..YOU PEOPLE NEED TO EDUCATE YOURSELF BEFORE SPEAKING SUCH AWEFUL WORDS ABOUT HIM…YOU NEED A REALITY CHECK..NOW THAT OBAMA IS OUR PRESIDENT WE SHOULD BE SCARED..HE IS NOT ONLY ARROGANT BUT CLASSLESS..HE NEVER ONCE PRAISED MCCAIN FOR HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS BUT TRIED TO PUT HIM DOWN…ITS SAD THAT NOW WHEN I TURN ON THE TV I SEE PEOPLE WAVING BLACK POWER SIGNS IN THE AIR..IF I WERE TO WAVE A WHITE POWER SIGN IN THE AIR I WOULD BE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE..I JUST DON'T GET IT…JOHN MCCAIN YOU ROCK AND THANKS FOR YOUR HARD WORK AND DEDICATION TO OUR COUNTRY ..

    I was very impressed with his speech. He did his best & the American people spoke. America is so pissed off with the Bush admin. I am sure NO Republican would have won, no matter who it was. Obama has his work cut out for him! It will take ALOT of work to get our country out of the shithole it is in.
