Kerry gives up

AP reports that Senator Kerry has called President Bush and conceded defeat. To have waited much longer really would have been over-the-top.
Kerry is said to have told the president that the country is too divided and that “we really have to do something about it.” The country is divided, but the division is in favor of President Bush and his party. If the goal is to decrease division in the context of a democratic society, the Democrats will have to accept this voter-imposed reality to a much greater degree than they have shown any past willingness to do. I’m not expecting much from Kerry in this regard.
