It's minutes after the concession speech on election night 2016, and the dust is just settling down.

The candidate's body man runs up to his boss with the phone. "It's for you, its Governor Romney on the line."

The next morning, Senator McCain calls, then Senator Kerry, then Vice President Gore, then Senator Dole, then President H.W Bush, then Governor Dukakis, then Senator Mondale and finally former President Carter...

Not really. I'd give anything to speak on the phone to those people, let alone as president.

If I were the losing candidate, those are probably the only people I'd feel like talking to because they're the only ones who could sympathize.

What's the context here? Did this really happen or is this a hypothetical?

Yeah man, totally happened.

The context is that the losing candidate gets a string of phone calls from people who have also lost.

My mistake, I'm a dummy and misread the original post.
