The art of losing is something all true winners know about. John McCain, in his wonderfully gracious and moving speech, demonstrated just that. Even if one was a Barack Obama supporter, it would have been hard not to salute this man for the way he has conducted himself so far after losing a bitterly fought presidential election.
In the end, despite the crushing defeat, John McCain proved himself to be a worthy opponent for a man whom the world is already calling a once-in-a-generation leader. Nice too, to see the respect these two men have for each other's achievements despite their political differences, and their common belief that their country comes first.
Wish we could see more of that in Indian politics!
