Folks, let's be gracious in winning as Kerry was noble in his concession.
Okay. I'll be gracious tomorrow, pending recommendation from the lawyers.
Kerry was noble??? No way. He's defeated and had NO choice. His party told him to stop embarassing them and concede. He is not noble....never was.
Agreed. Be nice to a Kerry supporter today.
You are exactly right.
I think if we are gracious we can convert a few of their moderates who want to join the winning team. Not to mention that we are all Americans.
First I must take a poll and see if that is what I should do.
H*ll no, I am going to GLOAT today.
I'm trying to figure out if that's a joke...specifically the word "noble". I mean..my gut instinct tells me that it's a joke. But, I somehow get the feeling that you're not joking?
I agree. No need to gloat. (much)
Bump.
Screw that! Rich Lowrey says Kerry LECTURED Bush in his concession call!!
What are you smoking? Guess you missed Vice President Edwards last night.
I plan to be gratious, but it's going to be difficult. Living in the belly of the beast (Sonoma County, CA), I've been taken a lot of crap from these idiots.
Humble in victory, gracious in defeat. I have many friends who are Democrats. I value them as friends.
Kerry wasn't noble. The Dems know that is would be dangerous to persue this route right now, and if they failed it would ruin any hope of Hillary successfully winning in '08. This is more to save face for the Democratic Party than John Kerry.
How do you know he was noble?
He hasn't made it yet.
And try to REMEMBER all the lies this man told about George W. Bush and Dick Cheney and Mary Cheney.
NO MAS!
Afterall, I had to be gracious to Yankee fans just a couple weeks ago - I'm getting a case 'gloating constipation' here!
The pro-abortion supporters of Kerry deserve nothing except a continuous beating. We should kick them while they're down. The war is ongoing and they haven't yet been destroyed.
Tommorow, today alot of emotion needs letting and if you are a depressed lib get out of the way.
We must not gloat and upset people about winning. We have GOT to figure out how to reach these people. That is the next mission I think. We have to save our fellow Americans from liberalism.
Congratulations to ALL. This is a great victory for us and AMERICA!!! Boy it was hard work too!
I agree. HOWEVER - I will go after Mikey Moore!
No. I want to gloat.
I'll decide on being gracious after I hear his concession speech.
Kerry should have conceded last night.
That means no crank calls to his campaign headquarters please.
You mean the way they were gracious to George Bush after all the recounts in Florida?
You mean the way they were gracious to George Bush after 9-11?
You mean the way they were gracious to George Bush with the DUI report 5 days before the election?
You mean the way they were gracious to George Bush and his service in the Air National Guard?
You mean the way they were gracious to George Bush when he compromised on Campaign Finance, No Child Left Behind, etc?
Yeah, we can be bigger men and we will be gracious, but we will never forget.
I agree...we get to GLOAT today. Tomorrow we will be gracious.
No, he wasn't. He is saving his face from ridicule.
He lost Ohio in absentee ballot count with military still to go.
I will be gracious to those Dems who aren't threatening to destroy my country, but I refuse to acknowledge Kerry dropping out of a race he had no business prolonging - he was hoping the riots would commence in the streets and they didn't.
I'm gloating and humming James Brown tunes ("Wow! I feel good!") to myself.
I'm going to be polite, but pleased, to my pinko commie liberal bleeding heart friends and family. I'll offer to help them make arrangements to emigrate.
We are better than them. We needn't sink to their level of crassness.

Maybe tommorow.
Please...details.
Heinz Ketchup for All!!!!!
Gracious would have been conceding last night when he actually lost.
i'll be nice to a kerry supporter but not the DNC. NOT after what they said about W. F'em.
God would have us celebrate but also be gracious....
NEWS FLASH: For the first time in his 20+ years in politics, John Kerry places the needs of the nation above his own ambitions! (and we thought that pigs would NEVER fly)
Gracious? I dont think so. We did that four years ago and suffered back stabbing and lies from the Democrats. The best thing that could happen to lift the USA would be to destroy the Democrat party, using RICO, as a criminal enterprise. Then split the Republican party into two parts, social liberals and social conservatives and Move On from there.
You're right. We should be gracious. I don't agree that Kerry's noble but he could have made this alot more difficult if he had a mind to.
Be sure to pay attn to Couric, and her strained and anguished face. It adds to the gloat meter.
Yes. Civility and graciousness win hearts and minds for the next time aroound.
I think graciousness is a good thing. My more mischievous side, though, is wondering if perhaps anyone who is a troll on the liberal sites might start providing the other users of the liberal sites the links they need to emigrate to Canada (or somewhere) and renounce their US citizenship? It would be a good thing for the Democrats to become a more responsible (and yes, therefore more competitive) party, and that can't happen as long as the moon bat Deaniacs are around. They want national health insurance, fine, here's your ticket to Ontario.

NO EFFIN WAY!
Take a spin around DU and you'll forget "gracious" really quick!
Gracious?
He is a domestic enemy of the nation and the Constitution.
BS...Kerry did the math.
Noble, I think not! He was told the numbers were not there in Ohio, he's no hero or noble, he's a loserman!
GLOAT!
