It's a great sign of maturity and paramount to your own growth to understand that there always exists the possibility that you are simply wrong, no matter how right you think you are. Whether Luke is right or not, it sounds like this is a lesson he hasn't yet managed to learn...

What disappoints me is that people get blamed for being "sore losers" but I have met and heard and seen many "sore winners".

Apparently no one could win or lose gracefully.

This election has brought out the bad in all of us I guess. Now it is time to bring the change, and that means working together.

If we are going to change we shouldnt think of it as winners and losers but as people.

Completely agree!!! Rep to you for showing everyone how balanced you are. I hope that the people who happen to obsessed with Palin get over their mental problems soon.
