Why Did Hillary Cancel all Her Morning Talk Shows today?

OK, Obama ha 1840 delegates, 252 Superdelegates pledged last night. You need I think 2252 to win, which means Obama is only a couple of hundred off, HIllary a significant 400+

Goood Morning America today said that Hillary cancelled all her morning Talk Show appearances scheduled and no comment was given as to why.

Is this the first sign that she will concede the inevitable?

Because technically, Obama has this locked up.

Unless Hillary really gets really really evil and somehow steals all 252 Superdelegates from Obama, which then would only make them even.

Thoughts?

She's done. My prediction is she concedes in the next day or two.

She has to concede or face looking like a total moron - even more of one than she looks like now.

I heard on the news today that she was meeting with a number of super delegates today, so maybe that's it.

i think she has realized that she can't get the nomination, and is now looking to the future. if she concedes soon, and obama loses, she'll probably still have the support to run again in 2012. if she keeps holding on though, the party won't forgive her (especially if obama loses by a slight margin in the general election). i think she's smart enough to realize that her only chance of ever running for president again is to bow out gracefully now.

That's my guess because it's her only chance at getting the nomination. Last ditch effort.

She is getting too old to make another run, she is done if she doesn't get the nomination this year. She is trying a last ditch effort to win. I bet she is out there begging every super delegate. But she has nothing to stand on, even counting Florida and Michigan she is still trailing in delegates and popular vote. On CNN this morning they said she needs to win 90% of the vote in the remaining races to draw even with Obama. By the way Obama needs 2025 to seal up the nomination.

2025 need to win. There are about 277 delegates left I think. Obama needs 183. That means he needs to win 66% of the remaining delegates to win. If not it'll be decided at the convention behind closed doors, and closed doors is Hillary's game.

There are also superdelegates, and they will declare (at latest) in june after the final primary. There's a 0% chance of this thing going to convention, sorry republicans
