A Difficult Road

McCain's concession speech was the highlight of his campaign. He was kind. He was gracious. It was refreshing. Thanks John, and let me highlight one point he made in that speech.
"The road was a difficult one from the outset..."
How right you are, John. The road was difficult. Check out this map of a poll taken 2 years ago.


In that poll Obama got only 28 electoral votes. Two years spent organizing and campaigning transformed that map. Obama ended up with 364. A difficult road, indeed.

Hi,

I understand you want to make a point and I agree with the point you are trying to make.

However, picturing us Californians voting for a republican is ridiculously wrong. And I am sure people with some other states will have the same strong feeling
