See Peggy Noonan’s excellent opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal on whether Clinton can gracefully lose (her answer is probably not).

“Politicians lose battles, it’s part of what they do, win and lose. But she does not know how to lose. Can she lose with grace? But she does grace the way George W. Bush does nuance.”

She also ruminates on which is the better candidate for the Republicans to go against in November:

“The Democrats have it exactly wrong. Hillary is the easier candidate, Mr. Obama the tougher. Hillary brings negative; it’s fair to hit her back with negative. Mr. Obama brings hope, and speaks of a better way. He’s not Bambi, he’s bulletproof.”
