How this ends.....
Assuming the Clinton camp isn't already privately telegraphing a dropout date and the Obama camp doesn't hit the magic number Tuesday night, I would think that Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid will be in contact with the Clinton campaign sometime over the next few days to set a deadline for Clinton to withdraw.
The message will be, "we, along with x number of other superdelegates, are going to endorse Obama on "date x" and there are two possibilities. We would much prefer to give the speech praising you after you've dropped out......."
(Clinton stayed in too long if she wanted VP or some other concession. Her negotiating power is now much weaker.)
On the other hand, Obama was feeling so comfortable he was catching flying pancakes this morning.

Funny. I was doing the same thing on Sunday. Of course I'm whiter, fatter, and far less charismatic... but we're about the same age, so it's like we're practically twins!

That's why you're voting for him, right?
Identity politics.
