My friends, we have -- we have come to the end of a long journey. The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly. A little while ago, I had the honor of calling Senator Barack Obama to congratulate him. (BOOING) Please. To congratulate him on being elected the next president of the country that we both love.
I was impressed by McCain's concession speech (what I heard of it). It showed so much grace and character that were not apparent these past several months. Truth unfolds in time through a communal process.
