McCain: "Look Forward To Being With You In The Future"

November 4, 2008 | 6:50 PM

John McCain addressed his traveling press corps this evening on the final flight, from Albuquerque to Phoenix, and NBC/NJ's Adam Aigner-Treworgy reports the exchange:

Well my friends, this is our last flight on this airplane together. And, so, I just wanted to stop back.

Yesterday, I know was really a fun day. Starting out at the crack of dawn and ended up at 2 am, we went 3,700 miles yesterday.

We’ve had a great ride. We’re looking forward to the election results tonight, and I’m feeling good, and feeling confident about the way things are turned out.

We had a great ride. We had a great experience. It’s full of memories that we will always treasure.

Including the last one up there in Colorado where people were so warm and the enthusiasm as you have seen in the rallies has been really quite remarkable, and quite heartwarming.

So, we’ve spent a lot of time together, some have been together for almost two years, others, those are the ones that rode around in the van with us, and on the $39.99 flight to Manchester.

So, anyway, we’ve had a great time, I wish you all every success, and look forward to being with you in the future.

Thanks very much.
