So far, no petulant remarks about Romney, so that’s a start.

Talks about his 96-year-old mom, who is a good luck charm. “We’re taking her everywhere.”

“Thank you, Arizona.” Whaaa? He should’ve said, “Thanks for almost stiffing me, guys.”

Congratulates Huckabee. Praises his “exceptional skills as a campaigner…I salute you. I salute Gov. Huckabee.”

Also congratulates Romney. “He’s a tough competitor.” Salutes his supporters too.

He’s throwing out olive branches like crazy. Mentions his respect for Romney. Let the healing begin!

Now talking about the Republican Party. Says if he wins the nomination, the conservative philosophy “will again win the votes of a majority of the people.” Man, he’s tying up all kinds of loose ends. Getting ready for his appearance at CPAC.

This is almost a pleasant John McCain. None of the brittleness that he usually shows. Either he’s on Prozac or his handlers have gotten to him.

Now they’ve switched to Obama’s speech.
