I look forward to whatever he has to offer, but he has a big burden on his shoulders. If people see him F-Up even a little, they'll basically scream bloody murder and ruin future minority (aka non-white) candidates. But that's how our country is. Hopefully it doesn't escalate to that.
Can anyone link me to McCain's concession speech? i was working the polls all yesterday and want to see this so-called great speech. =)
The reason the popular vote was so close is because In almost every state that Obama won, the vote was split almost evenly in every state. You only need 1 more vote than the other guy to win the entire state's electoral vote.
For example. Obama won North Carolina by only 0.3% popular vote.
