The fantasy of superdelegates switching to Clinton

On the plane yesterday, Hillary Clinton began to paint her last fantasy sequence (echoed by a few campaign figures in various places,)
"One thing about superdelegates is that they can change their minds," she told reporters aboard her campaign plane Sunday night.

Right. Okay. So, I am a superdelegate, and I am expected to publicly switch from the likely next president of the United States, the effective leader of my party, pissing him off, pissing off his advocates who are in the ascendancy for what reason again?

When a co-chair of your campaign has to say this, maybe it's time to stop dancing.
Tom Vilsack, the former Iowa governor and a national co-chairman of Clinton's campaign, said Sunday: "It does appear to be pretty clear that Senator Obama is going to be the nominee. After Tuesday's contests, she needs to acknowledge that he's going to be the nominee and quickly get behind him."
