McCain message: Convention Night.
McCain sends Obama what appears to be a kind message. He congratulates Obama and states, "Congratulations. How prefect that your nomination should come on this historic day" which is an obvious reference to the fact that on August 28th 1963 Martin Luther King made his "I have a dream" speech; the exact same date as when, 45 years later, Barack Obama accepted the Democratic nomination.
There's one thing McCain is not mentioning here as he congratulates Obama and cites the Martin Luther King reference inherent in Obama's timing. Not only did McCain vote against a day to celebrate MLK's life, he also supported Gov. Evan Mecham’s decision to rescind the MLK holiday.
