Thank you. Thank you, my friends. The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly.
A little while ago, I had the honor of calling Sen. Barack Obama to congratulate him.
To congratulate him on being elected the next president of the country that we both love.
Sen. Obama believes that, too.
Sen. Obama has achieved a great thing for himself and for his country. No doubt many of those differences remain.
These are difficult times for our country. Whatever our differences, we are fellow Americans. It's natural, tonight, to feel some disappointment. You know, campaigns are often harder on a candidate's family than on the candidate, and that's been true in this campaign.
We can all look forward with great interest to her future service to Alaska, the Republican Party and our country.
To all my campaign comrades, from Rick Davis and Steve Schmidt and Mark Salter, to every last volunteer who fought so hard and valiantly, month after month, in what at times seemed to be the most challenged campaign in modern times, thank you so much. A lost election will never mean more to me than the privilege of your faith and friendship.
This campaign was and will remain the great honor of my life, and my heart is filled with nothing but gratitude for the experience and to the American people for giving me a fair hearing before deciding that Sen. Obama and my old friend Sen. Joe Biden should have the honor of leading us for the next four years.
Tonight -- tonight, more than any night, I hold in my heart nothing but love for this country and for all its citizens, whether they supported me or Sen. Obama -- whether they supported me or Sen. Obama.
Americans never quit. We never surrender.
We never hide from history.
Thank you, and God bless you, and God bless America.
