Re: sweetpiece – Hugs, Sweetie. I'm sincerely happy for you! And nice to see you got your kids involved. I do too… we all watched everything last night. And my sons were for McCain but my daughter was for Obama. So no brainwashing going on chez Smirks. lol.
yeah, i almost cried when i saw this. he prepared that speech impeccably, and i hope obama respects his genuine gracefulness.
I am sad for him but It was a fair fight. For the first time in my life I feel that I actually care about a president.
OBAMA LUBBIN
John McCain, it's really too bad that you were raised Republican coz if you were a Democrat, you probably would of won. We still love and appreciate all the torture you took for this country. Now, go and relax, this shit is finally over.
I voted for McCain. I'm glad he was classy.
McCain is a class act. never has one who has given so much for his county been defeated by someone who has given so little. All because people hate
bush and don't understand economics. See Truth According To T o m
Re: BananaForHannah – People on here who are continuing to make fun of McCain and Palin are rude and immature. Both conceded with so much class and grace; they are class acts.
The people on this site, on the other hand… you disappoint me. YOU are the types of people who ruin this country's reputation, NOT us conservatives.
well said..well said , it almost drove me into tears.. ahhhh…
):
McCain should had win that black dude will bring down america ):
I applaud Senator McCain for such a wonderful speech!!!
'm going to quit my job so I can live off the government as Barack has promised!!!!!! What idiots we have in this country!!!!
McCain conceded with grace.. his followers did not. They boo'd as if it was a high school pep rally. When Obama gave his speech of acceptance and mentioned McCain.. I did not hear people jeering.. there was certainly a pause and some clapping, but it wasn't such a childish "booooo, you're the good guy, he's the bad guy, booooo"
But yes, I think he gave a fair and good speech of resignation. Good for him.
And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is who should be running our country - someone with dignity and class, who bows out gracefully and eloquently, all the while reminding us what a blessing it is to be in this country despite the fact that he won't be leading it. It is people like him that make me proud to be an American, not the scum-bag that has been elected to office. I pray deeply for this country - I am terrified to see what is going to happen with Obama in office.
the fighting words, racism, and blame within the comments on this very blog prove how disrespectful and ignorant many people in this great nation still are. it is hurtful and shameful. john mccain has served our country in every manner possible, and this speech proves the dignity and class he embodies. do not think for one minute barack obama would think the immature slander by his very own supporters, of his opponent and McCain's supporters, would be honorable, considered classy, or just. grow up.
Why are the Dems on here STILL acting so retarded? You won, congratulations, now grow up and quit acting stupid…..
Now where is my friend?*
news just broke out.. they are removing the rose garden at the white house and putting in a watermelon patch lmao
I am glad Obama won but that was very good of McCain.
A very nice respectable speech.
that was pretty gooood.
Nice speech….. might have had my vote had he not choosen a BAT SHIT CRAZY runningmate
OH and as a person who works with the homeless in CA, WTF are the homeless going to do with her fucking suits… I so glad she is going away !!!
Awesome speach to the fanatical Republicans that boo at the mention of their countries new President. His speech was great, his party no freakin class what so ever.
I loved seeing Elisabitch Hasselbeck eat freakin crow today too!
Nice Egg all over her frigid face!
john mccain is such a classy man. everything about him. im so sick of people making comments about him being old and disrespecting him. how can you disrespect such an honorable guy?! honestly, he fought for our country was a p.o.w for FOUR years. he has the countries best interests at heart and this speech backs that up completely. i hope this countries proud they let such an honorable man get away.
with classs i agreeee
even though im canadian
im proud americans elected obama
its sad to say but he wont do his four years
because some dumbasss will assassinate himm
its a sad world
and also, bush did NOT fuck up our country. the bush ADMINISTRATION did. power is not absolutely the presidents, there is the senate and the house and all you ignorant people sound soo stupid. so you should probably stop.
What was we listening to the same speech??? Obama DID NOT sound like a pompous ass what so ever!! You are obviously upset McCain didn not win. Both McCain & Obama's speeches were very respectful with a lot of heart for America, as they should have been. I was very impressed when McCain hushed the crowd of boo's for Obama, that showed tremendous respect. I am so happy Obama will be our new president, and last God Bless America! That's all that should matter anyways!
three cheers for mccain being a classy, respectable man.
now… three more cheers for OBAMA!! once you go black, its out of iraq!
McCain is a very good sport.
Aw poor Sarah Palin.
Yes, I have to agree, he did it with Class….. and somehow, the spark in his eye came back — I think he was extremely happy to have lost… Just my feeling.
Re: Princess Bitch – You really are an ignorant moron. How could you say and think things like that. What is wrong with you??? Your a mean person
Re: LULU~* – And you my dear…shame on you. We all have a right to our own opinions, beliefs and political views. Do you really think spewing hate is what our President Elect would condone. I'm sure he'd tell you to stfu, your a loser. Your the one that should pack your bags and leave, the U.S. is really trying to move pass your kind of narrow minded ignorance. The majority of us are stepping right over you!!! Move aside
So… let us just let the past be, let us look to the future. Enough of the republicans did this democrats did this crap, lets focus on something we can change. We made mistakes as a country and now we must join together, learn from these mistakes, and turn things around. Maybe you like Obama maybe you don't. It doesn't matter at this point. You can't vote for the president again for another 4 years. Some of us don't like Bush's policy well you should have gotten off you ass and voted 4 years ago and changed the shit. THE LESSON IS TO VOTE FOR CHANGE. YOU HAVE TO VOTE FOR THE SENATE, THE HOUSE, THE PRESIDENT, … EVERYTHING. DON'T JUST SIT BACK AND COMPLAIN LIKE LITTLE BABIES.
The Guy is a class act.
Sen. McCain showed once again what a class act he can be. I find it very revealing that when he mentioned Obama in his speech, his crowd booed (twice) and when Obama mentioned McCain in his speech, his crowd applauded. Very telling.
I wonder if he decided he didn't want to take on America with the economy and the war and everything. It would explain Sarah Palin and the horrible campaign he ran. That being said, the concession speech was completely classy, and had he run the campaign that way, it may have been a closer race.
He did have class. This was one of the best speeches I've heard in my lifetime. I may have voted for Obama, but it was McCain's speech that moved me to tears.
fuck all the racists and haters up the ass. Re: audacity of crap – im talkin to YOU
I've always liked McCain coz he seemed sweet as a person but his concession speech really won me over… He accepted his loss with a lot of dignity.
I'm just so happy though!!! OBAMA WON!!!
I actually wanted to hug him. The crowd sucks.
nOW WTF IS SNL GOING TO DO? B. Obama is not funny. They have nothing for the next 4 years that's funny. Mad TV, is my
# 1 love anyway. They fucking rok. Obama fucking roarssssss.
Not only does this man have class, HE is a fucking HERO you asshole! You'll all be sorry !
Re: Smirks – ditto ditto to your posts……my kids were split too….the older two were mccains, and my little one was for obama all the way……..this afternoon out of the blue she squeeked i just love that obama won……just the fact that at their age, they had real and independent opinions about this election makes my heart melt….hehe….funny, at the school they held mock elections…..from what my kids tell me, most of the kids were supporting obama because he's going to make a four day school week!…awe….their first little political reaming…..lol
"Nice that he went out gracefully. I am sure he is embarrassed by the type of smear campaign he ran, he had disgusting people running his campaign and the American people said 'no more'."
This literally made me LOL. People are smart!
:(
it was really hard to see him and Palin with near-teary eyes.
Unfortunately, Obama couldn't win with the same amount of class. His "fans" were booing McCain when Obama mentioned him in his speech. Can we anticipate that this is the maturity level we will receive from Obama and his haters for the next 4 years? That's change we DON'T need. Fuck him.
MCCAIN HAD SO MUCH TACK AND GRACE. AS A REPUBLICAN, HE DID NOT HAVE MY VOTE (I HATE TO SAY IT BUT HE IS TO LEFT FOR ME AND MOST ON THE RIGHT) BUT WATCHING HIM HUSH THE BOOS AND AND NOT STAND FOR THAT SHOULD SHOW MOST DOUBTERS HE TRUELY IS WHO HE IS. HE IS FAR MORE LEFT THAN OBAMA EVER WILL BE RIGHT AND YOU WOULD NOT HAVE HAD MUCH TROUBLE IF HE WAS ELECTED. HE IS PRO ABORTION, PRO AMNISTY AND AND SO ON. A TRUE CLASS ACT!
Re: LULU~* – good christ, people like you make me sick. you should rethink who needs to leave the country.
that being said, i think mccain's speech was very good, and he bowed out gracefully. gore didn't do that. he bitched and moaned. kerry did bow out gracefully, i'll say that.
McCain is truly a patriotic American who love his country. It was plain to see in his last speech. He also came across the same way at the RNC Convention. You could feel his emotion. Too bad no one saw it on the campaign trail or in the debates. It may have made a difference for him. He is a true patriot and good man, no matter how you voted.
Re: OBAMA 08 –
Me too, it was a gracious speech, he conceded with dignity and that should be applauded, even if you voted for Obama
John McCain was the right man for the job. America screwed the pooch this time and now we're stuck. At least my conscience is clear– I voted for McCain.
Re: JillianMillion85 – yesss mccain did amazing and obama sucks but thats besides the point all you ignorant people got what you wanted but sarah wasnt even crying first of all and second she wasnt crying because they lost she was holding back tears because mccain deserved it and what he was sayying about her was just amazing so shut up and go hide somewhere
too bad he didn't win. he has more class than obama could dream of. I'm ashamed of our country.
