Sen. Kerry publicly conceded the presidential election to President Bush today in a speech before supporters in Boston. Kerry said he has decided to drop all challenges in Ohio.

Bush did much better in this election than he did in 2000; not only did he clearly beat Kerry in the electorial college, but he capture the popular vote as well, a feat he had not done before. All in all, I’m happy with the results as the Republican party also capture more seats in the Senate and House.
