Declare Victory Tomorrow, Obama

The Jed Report makes the case. The Clintons will never go quietly or gracefully. They couldn't even leave the White House without pardoning a few sleazebags and stealing a few gifts. I know the dangers of provoking the wave of victimhood that Clinton will invoke if anyone dares to point out that she has lost. But at some point the sheer classless, graceless sore-loser tackiness of the couple requires an end to the enabling.

Obama, one fears, is too much of a gentleman. You can't always maintain class with people who have none.
