Looks like the Clinton camp has finally begun to accept the truth due to the superdelegate haul Obama racked up yesterday, according to the San Jose Mercury News. The paper reports that the campaign is changing it's tactics as a result. Quotes below...
The paper noted a change the change in tone Friday;
While campaigning in Oregon Friday, Clinton publicly pledged to fight on. But, a new, more conciliatory tone crept into her stump speeches...
Why is that?
The superdelegate movement towards Obama - giving him a net gain of seven on Friday alone, with more expected - increased the pressure on Clinton to at least refrain from divisive remarks...
While we have seen her tone it down in the past, only to throw bombs the week or so before critical primaries, the vote in West Virginia is Tuesday. So if she is toning down now perhaps the Clinton's are finally starting to realize she ain't going to win, and are beginning to think of the future. More from the article;
Clinton advisors say that attacks on Obama are no longer enough to change the momentum or the outcome of the nomination race. Continued attacks on him, at this point, would probably inflict more long-term harm on Clinton than Obama, her advisors said.

Thank god, it appears that the Clintons overwhelming self interest has finally begun to work in our favor!
Or, as Porky Pig would say; "That's all folks!"
