Election - Initial Reactions

I thought McCain gave a fine, gracious concession speech. I also think he ran an honorable campaign and has a right to be proud of that.

Looking around the Right side of the Blogosphere, there is disappointment, of course. But there is also pride in our country for having elected its first Black President. It does seem like a historic moment! We Rock!

I also see a real effort on the right to welcome our new President. Allahpundit, for example, writes:

I’ll never be a fan, but I swear I’ll never take a nutroots posture either in relishing his failures because it helps my party. Like it or not, he’s my president. As a great man once said, country first.

See that loony Lefties? That's called Patriotism.
