Hillary Dismantles Advance Campaign Staff

Ben Smith at Politco.com is reporting that Hillary Clinton's "advance" staff has been summoned to New York City for a meeting tomorrow. The staffers have been told that their roles in the Clinton campaign are ending.
The advance staffers — most of them now in Puerto Rico, South Dakota, and Montana — are being given the options of going to New York for a final day Tuesday, or going home, the aides said. The move is a sign that the campaign is beginning to shed — at least — some of its staff. The advance staff is responsible for arranging the candidate's events around the country.

With the future of her campaign in doubt, Clinton hasn't announced her plans for the final election night of the primary cycle or beyond, but the aides said she would stage her election night event in New York City. Her entourage is currently expected to wake up Tuesday in New York and to arrive in Washington, D.C. Tuesday night. Clinton's senior aides didn't respond to requests for comment on her Tuesday night plans.
Is Hillary about to finally concede? I have my doubts.
