As we all know, Barack Obama will declare his victory of the Democratic presidential nomination in Oregon. Hillary Clinton can only hope to quit with dignity. Much like how America had to quit vietnam with dignity (By loading a bunch of people into an overcrowded chopper while the US embassy was being lit on fire) . Even quitting the current Iraq war could be a possible metaphor for the future Clinton exit strategy (Havn't planned that one yet). Let's hope (for our sanity) that her exit strategy is a little more Vietnam and a little less Iraq war. If there's anything America doesn't need it's a 100 year long democratic primary. Regardless, Barack Obama can learn a lot from what Clinton decides to do with her own exit strategy. But whatever the outcome, she's done. Worlds rejoice.

The Oregon Trail (Clinton Edition)
As summer approaches, the days get longer and the nights inevitably are shorter. This gives Hillary Clinton pause, because less and less of her 24 hours can be invested in dreams that have absolutely nothing to do with losing to Barack Obama. As the Democratic primary begins to wind down, Hillary must make her inevitable trek into loserdom by traveling to Oregon. The last great prize (if you can believe) in terms of electoral votes. It' s funny because Oregon is really no great prize in any sense of the words (great or prize). A population of American civilization that's too nerdy/infantile to make it in California but not quite nerdy/infantile enough to make it in Washington.
