It’s a great speech. And, we’re throwing a wide net already, but it’s worth remembering (or at least conceding before someone wags his finger at me about all this): we Americans are not at war with one another, we are having a peaceful, democratic election — which is what Americans do. And, for good or ill, within the limitations of the electoral college, the outnumbered cannot win in our democracy even with right and will on their side. That’s how the system works and it is to all of our credit that we do not pick up swords to remedy whatever mistakes are made because of that system.

Okay, back to the inspirational stuff. At least until the exit polls come in.
