McCain is a classy guy...

[Soonerus]

...all I am saying...

[yermom]

i was thinking the same thing

[JLEW1818]

right on

[Turd_Ferguson]

Concur

[soonerhubs]

I have to be honest and say I feel like he was preparing for a loss days before this evening.

[Veritas]

I have to be honest and say I feel like he was preparing for a loss days before this evening.
Oh, yeah. But he finished strong.

[Soonerus]

Great concession speech, very presidential..

[soonerhubs]

Oh, yeah. But he finished strong.

I respect that, and in the spirit of the thread, I must say McCain bowed out gracefully tonight.

[crawfish]

I didn't vote for him, but I have a ton of respect for him. It's obvious he puts country above self and party. One of the classiest concession speeches I've ever heard.

[OU-HSV]

In.
I think he gave the best speech he could. He'll still always have my respect, and I wish him well....I doubt I get to vote for him ever again since he is getting on up there in the age category ;)

[GrapevineSooner]

He's a good man.

Can't say he ran a particularly strong campaign and his pick of Palin as his Veep nominee really fell flat after about a month.

But he's a good man. And he's right that now's the time to come together and support President-Elect Obama.

Now, don't strain to be so gracious...geez...

[Sooner_Havok]

I have never, and will never question his character. I may not have agreed with his policies, but I believe whole-heartedly he thought what he was putting forward was what was best for America.

Great man, no doubt.

[toast]

a lot classier than I could have been. unfortunately he had two opponents to run against, obama and bush.

[BigRedJed]

Personally I've never been a fan of McCain. I voted for him because the other guy was so far from me politically. But I did it grudgingly. 2000 really turned me against him as a politician. But that concession speech was top notch. Statesmanlike. Far more gracious than most stuff you see these days.

[instigator]

That was his best speech of the whole campaign.

[JohnnyMack]

That was his best speech of the whole campaign.

If he acted like that guy more often than he did the schizophrenic guy, he might have fared better.

[sooner2b09]

I have never heard Obama say he loves his country.

[Soonerus]

If he acted like that guy more often than he did the schizophrenic guy, he might have fared better.

very poor comment...

[JohnnyMack]

I have never heard Obama say he loves his country.

He doesn't. He and his wife regularly attend flag burnings.

[BigRedJed]

That was his best speech of the whole campaign.
Man, I was thinking the very same thing. If he would have given speeches like throughout this campaign, we'd be critiquing Obama's concession right now. Well, that and if he had better vetted his veep choice.

[JohnnyMack]

very poor comment...

Your momma.

[olevetonahill]

If he acted like that guy more often than he did the schizophrenic guy, he might have fared better.

I thot you had More Class.

[toast]

Are you Keith Olberman?

[Soonerus]

Your momma.

What goes around comes around....

[MamaMia]

Three, including the media.

[salth2o]

What did he say? I could not stomach anymore of the communist celebration. I am watching duck hunting...they are not talking about bho.

[instigator]

If he acted like that guy more often than he did the schizophrenic guy, he might have fared better.

Agreed except the schizophrenic part.

[toast]

Three, including the media.

word - I don't think they could be any giddier than they are right now.

[Soonerus]

Three, including the media.

actually maybe 3,4,5,6 and 7 including the media...

[SweetPup1221]

I have never heard Obama say he loves his country.

haha that’s because he's Muslim! Who wins the American presidency with Hussein as a middle name?

I'm not talking crap, just seriously confused

[achiro]

Man, I was thinking the very same thing. If he would have given speeches like throughout this campaign, we'd be critiquing Obama's concession right now. Well, that and if he had better vetted his veep choice.

He gave speeches like that regularlybut nobody ever got to see them. ;)

[BigRedJed]

My dad's middle name is Maurice. Yet, perhaps shockingly, he is not gay.

[lexsooner]

...all I am saying...

Absolutely! Very nice concession speech. Any chance he gets offered a cabinet position in the Obama White House?

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

My dad's middle name is Lee.

He does not wear Lee jeans.

[salth2o]

My dad's middle name is Maurice.

Do some people call him the space cowboy?

[BigRedJed]

Do some people call him the space cowboy?
No, but he is a smoker. Regrettably.

[SweetPup1221]

My dad's middle name is Maurice. Yet, perhaps shockingly, he is not gay.

We'll tell me how the soon to be president of the United States doesn't even put his hand over his heart during the pledge of allegiance!

And my Dad's middle name is Joseph but what does that have to do with anything

[BigRedJed]

NOT a pole smoker, though. I already pointed that one out.

[BigRedJed]

...And my Dad's middle name is Joseph but what does that have to do with anything
Exactly. What does that have to do with anything? You answered your own question.

[sooner2b09]

He doesn't. He and his wife regularly attend flag burnings.

That explains it. I knew it.

[SweetPup1221]

hmmmm

[BigRedJed]

Nice post edit.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

Oh lawd, the ignunce...

[SweetPup1221]

Nice post edit.

I realized that its dumb to bicker about this stuff, because no matter what I say it wont make a difference

[BigRedJed]

Oh, I thought maybe you figured out that I was a McCain supporter. Or that Obama isn't a Muslim. My mistake.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Your a muslim that supported McCain

[JohnnyMack]

You're just pretty much a retard.

[BigRedJed]

Your a muslim that supported McCain
Surprisingly, there were some of those.

[Sooner_Havok]

You're just pretty much a retard.

:(

[BigRedJed]

You're just pretty much a retard.
I agree. So would Sweetpup. Then she would edit the post where she agreed.

[silverwheels]

You can't be retarded if you love ribs.

[BigRedJed]

OK. I agree with you. I must not be retarded. Now I'm confused.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

A confused Muslim who supported Mccain..

Or a McCain supporter who confused a Muslim

[BigRedJed]

:les: I'M A MAVERICK!!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

You know Bri is a Double Maverick....

[BigRedJed]

bri's middle name is Maurice too. But he really IS gay.

[85Sooner]

McCain ran on of the worst campaigns in history. Difficult to tell whether his or doles was more pathetic. Someday pubs will get back on conservative issues, call a duck a duck and learn to friggen communicate.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Did he concede that he can't hit the three pointer?

[Stoop Dawg]

I have never heard Obama say he loves his country.

For the record, I've never seen you post that you love your country either.

[salth2o]

For the record, I've never seen you post that you love your country either.


I don't think sooner2b09 is running for POTUS either.

[Stoop Dawg]

I realized that its dumb to bicker about this stuff, because no matter what I say it wont make a difference

If you've figured that out at 27 posts, then you're ahead of the game.

This is a great place for reading other people's opinions and for expressing your own. But trite comments (from you or anyone else) about meaningless subjects serves only to inflame and, frankly, make the poster look silly.

[Cam]

McCain ran on of the worst campaigns in history. Difficult to tell whether his or doles was more pathetic.

That's a tough one. Dole's campaign was just a complete cluster from beginning to end. IMO, McCain's wasn't screwed until the newness of Palin wore off.

[Boarder]

I'd vote for either Dole or Perot. Perot could have won if he had not dropped out mid race and came back.

[Stoop Dawg]

I don't think sooner2b09 is running for POTUS either.

Allow me to clarify.....

Just because you haven't heard it doesn't mean that it wasn't said.

[TUSooner]

Well, McCain said Obama loves the USA, so that's good enough for me!

McCain is indisputably classy.

[Howzit]

My dad's middle name is Dale.

The end.

[Lott's Bandana]

My dad's middle name is Dale.

The end.

And by golly, he'll answer to that as well!

The end II.

[pergdaddy]

I love my country.

Am I qualified now? Or is that pretty much a given iffen I ran for POTUS?

Just askin'.
