Wow, from an editorial by Michael Kelly, commenting/reviewing four new books on the very former President Clinton:

Common Clinton Knowledge (washingtonpost.com)

But there is a common theme, which has to do with the quality that, in the end, made Clinton a most unusual president. It is not, Klein's valiant efforts notwithstanding, a positive quality. What comes across as the most important source of Clinton's uniqueness as president is the nearly unbelievable degree of his essential unfitness to be president -- his profound immaturity, his pathological selfishness, his cynicism, above all his relentless corruption.
Why is all of this coming out now? Why did everyone wait until after the crook was out of office?
