I second the motion.

I thought the Edwards speech was awful - not a word of congratulations to Pres. Bush or a pledge to work together in the future - but Sen. Kerry's speech was very moving.

I hope Kerry's most ardent supporters, who have seemed to be driven mainly by hate and condescension toward the president, listen to what Sen. Kerry said, and I hope the president's supporters also respond graciously.

I thought it was excellent that he mentioned victory in Iraq and in the war on terror, rather than simply getting out of Iraq.  I was very moved when his daughters joined him on the stage.  All in all, it was a wonderful example of how we should all behave, win or lose.
