Clinton campaign faces reality on FL and MI
Advertisements [?]
I have been saying this for MONTHS. Now they've finally admitted it:

"In a Clinton campaign conference call with reporters on Wednesday, three top advisers acknowledged that even if all the delegates from disputed primaries in Michigan and Florida were seated at the Democratic convention, Mrs. Clinton would still not have enough delegates to claim the nomination."

Oh, and a show of strength from the Obama campaign (same article)

"Obama advisers said they would proceed through the final primaries mindful of a lesson learned after Iowa, when a dose of overconfidence contributed to defeat in New Hampshire. The campaign ran television commercials in Kentucky, Montana, Oregon, South Dakota and West Virginia and radio advertisements in Puerto Rico."

in other words, EVERYWHERE that is left to vote. They are sending a message about their financial strength vs. hers.
