If McCain had stayed that classy during his campaign, he might have won. He actually had a "Don't make me come down there and smack you" look on his face more than once whenever his supporters booed Obama. I think he had some disgust about how his campaign was run by the "old school" Republican advisors, and he knows it contributed to his loss.

I hope he stays active on the national level, if he's willing to be a bridge builder with Obama. There's been talk the President Elect (squee!) will probably have Republicans in his administration, so who knows.

The country has been split between "red" and "blue" for too long, not just for cultural reasons, but due to so many thinking it had to be one way or the other instead of working together. Maybe that will finally change.
