lost in 1988? Did Dan Quayle in 1992? Did Jack Kemp in 1996? What about Joe Lieberman in 2000 and John Edwards in 2004?

No, it is the head of the ticket who issues the concession speech. (OK, 2000 was different).

So why is Palin upset that the McCain campaign would not allow her to speak to the crowd after Obama was declared the winner?
