Couldn't agree more with Ann Althouse, guest-blogging at Instapundit:
SPEAKING OF THE GRACEFUL ACCEPTANCE OF LOSS ... Senator Kerry, how about a concession speech? Remember how good Al Gore looked in 2000, when he finally gave his concession speech? Gore had reason to drag out the vote counting, given how close things were, and we survived that ordeal. But when he conceded he had a beautiful, eloquent dignity. I was sorry when Angry Al Gore emerged in the 2004 campaign season and dispelled that fine image he had left us with at the end of the 2000 struggle. Senator Kerry, for your own legacy, you should give a beautiful, dignified concession speech this morning. You have many supporters, and you can help them recover from the loss and accept the reality of the situation in a positive spirit. You do not have the cause that Gore had to drag out the post-election counting. What good can that do? Please use the opportunity that you have today to help Americans pull together and move beyond the long, harsh argument we've just had with each other.
UPDATE: This blog gets results! I posted this, and then 2 seconds later, Kerry announces that he has called President Bush and that he will deliver his concession speech at noon, central time.
