It took me years to live down the shame of losing this but I finally am giving my concession speech so that the democracy of this board can live on:
Whelp, I lost and so I changed my name. Despite some good suggestions I have taken my username from many other internet places. This voting was rigged. Just had a very open and successful jazzfans postings. Now professional protesters, incited by the media, are protesting. Very unfair! I know this isn't easy. I know that over the past week a lot of people have asked themselves whether America was the country we thought it was. The divisions laid bare by this election run deep. But please listen to me when I say this: America is worth it. Our children are worth it.coming here tonight wasn’t the easiest for me. There have been a few times this past week that all I wanted to curl up with a good book, or our dogs, and never leave the house again.
*Some of those words are mine
