We're in the camp that says this is way premature, and Obama is one big momentum shift away from not being the Democratic nominee.
But elsewhere, there's a congealing feeling that Hillary Clinton has only a slim and shrinking chance. Slate has even started a new feature -- "The Hillary Deathwatch:"
"Hillary Clinton is as good as dead. This became the consensus over the past week, when the media awoke en masse to the dual reality that 1) Clinton can't close the pledged-delegate gap and 2) Obama has her beat in the popular vote. But the Clinton campaign shows no signs of slowing...So the question now is not just 'How dead is she?' but 'When will she realize it?' "
The logo, as you can see, is colorful.
But, boy, will these guys regret it if it turns around.
And, here's an alternative to depending on Slate: An online spreadsheet at Real Clear Politics where you can plug in your own predictions on delegates and popular vote in upcoming states, choose various scenarios on Michigan and Florida -- and come up with your own prediction.

She's a Walking Dead Woman but her ego, and her sense of entitlement, prevents her from admitting so. Since she ran for the Senate just to use it as a stepping stone to POTUS, better questions are:
1. Will she resign her Senate seat before her term expires ?
2. If not, will she run for reelection ?
Hillary is not even close to being dead. Also, even if she were to lose the nomination (or even the general election) she would not give up her seat. She is patient and she would run again in 2012. Don't give up on Hillary.
Bill Clinton called italians meatballs and not apoligized and Cuomo didn't seeanything wrong with that.
