The Democrats: Obama/Clinton poll watch

Take a look at the results for Friday, Feb. 29th, the latest polls:
(and in the days before that, if you wish):
The trend for Obama continues to be impossible to miss.
He leads Senator Clinton in almost all national polls of Democrats now.
Senator Clinton has led, substantially, in Ohio for months now.
But the latest Ohio poll coming out on 2/29 shows her leading there by only 2.
She's led in past months in Texas consistently.
But now pretty much every poll I've seen in Texas shows Obama either leading by 5 pts or more, or at worst tied.

It sure looks. right now, as if Senator Obama is poised to be the Democrats' nominee.
Can anything turn this around? Is this the end of the Clinton Era?
The answer to the former appears to be "no", and to the latter--"yes."
