Today Kentucky will undoubtedly bring a win for Clinton and Oregon a win for Obama, yet another stalemate that could keep the fuel going for team Hillary. With that said, all signs point to a quick shift occurring in the Democratic race.

Yesterday a report in Politico noted discussions between Obama campaign chief David Axelrod and former Clinton manager Patti Solis Doyle about a possible role for her in a general election campaign.

This morning The Wall Street Journal reports that adviser and former deputy Treasury Secretary under Bill Clinton Roger Altman has advised Sen. Clinton the time has come to exit the race.

Inside her campaign, Sen. Clinton isn’t asking for advice, forcing advisers to hold off discussions on what she wants from the process if she loses — from dealing with campaign debt, to her role in an Obama bid for the White House. “The campaign has broken down to those who drink the Kool-Aid that Hillary can still win, and those who don’t, and are considering their options,” one operative said.

The WSJ article noted that the schism has Bill Clinton and Mark Penn (surprise, surprise) pushing Clinton to continue.

Meanwhile reports are that Senator Obama plans to declare victory tonight claiming 2,025 pledged delegates and superdelegates, considered a majority by the DNC excluding Florida & Michigan. Will Clinton fold? Right now it looks doubtful, check out a Washington Post article that looks at the difficulties in merging the Democratic factions together.
