McCain’s Concession.

Very strange crowd reactions. I feel like he is giving a sincere concession speech, imploring supporters to get behind Obama and to work to move the country forward. Maybe the sincerest most sincere speech of his entire campaign, even tearing up some.

The crowd seems slightly disinterested in his words and out of synch with his tone. The only thing that seems to get a long and rousing cheer from the crowd is his recognition of Sarah Palin.

Maybe this is a sign of what remains of the “mainstream” Republican party. McCain says some kind words about Obama’s achievement and what it says about our country and the response is tepid. He tips his hat to the crazy lady and they go nuts.

It’s all base.
