ELOQUENCE

To lose an election for president of the United States has to be a heart breaking experience.

Tonight's concession speech by Senator John McCain was the definition of eloquence and grace. It spoke inexpressible volumes about the Man’s character. The capital letter “M” in the word “Man” in the preceding sentence isn’t an error. With this speech McCain has proven himself to be a capital letter Man, both as a prisoner of war, and as a candidate. McCain's closing remark puts it in perspective, "Americans never quit. We never surrender. We never hide from history, we make history."
