I found McCain's concession speech mostly palatable, but his use of "associations" soured it for me. I know he was trying to speak to those people who were riled up against Obama over Ayers and Wright, telling them to let it go because we're all Americans, but all it did was remind me that HE was the sleazeball who riled them up in the first place.
But enough about that, Yes We Could! I have been foolishly imagining this moment for 4 years. At that convention I saw someone who was everything our leaders, and potential leaders, of the time were not. Experience or no, he seemed to have the head for the job and I'm thrilled the country came to agree.
Now don't screw it up!
