OMG. I just watched the full speech on the internet-I don’t even want to read the pundits commentaries, it would spoil it for me-the last part moved me to tears, and I’m no wimpy liberal who turns on the faucet at the drop of a phrase. Nothing could be more moving than his story that lead to him saying “America saved me”. And I grinned from ear to ear when he said the part (paraphrasing) about not thinking that he was called of God to “save the country in its hour of need”, but that he felt honored to be able to serve her. I don’t care what the chatterati are saying, that speech moved me in a different way, as much as Sarah Palin’s did. I don’t agree with John McCain on everything-I have major disagreements with him on a couple of things-but my gut tells me that NO one, absolutely no one, could have the integrity as far as having a real desire to serve as elected that he will bring to the Presidency, even if I want to throttle him for some of his beliefs in the future.

No one can detract from McCain’s integrity and service. Even those who do not agree with him have to concede them.
There is no choice when it is The Hero vs. the Zero.

Good slogan for us FReepers:
John McCain
