Time for Hillary to pack it in

It's been a really bad day for the Clinton team.  As far as I can tell, their strategy depended on 1) closing the pledged delegate gap enough (via Michigan and Florida) to make a credible argument that she and Obama are nearly tied; and 2) hoping for a big Obama misstep that supports her claim (to the superdelegates) that he isn't electable.  I think that she would need both of these to present a really credible argument to the uncommitted superdelegates.  Both of these hopes now seem dim at best.
