Lemme explain then
During the primaries Clinton and Biden were in COMPETITION with Obama. It was their job to build themselves up and to tear Obama down in order to win that competition.
Now the competition has changed.
The competition has changed to one between Obama and McCain. Now Clinton and Biden are in COOPERATION with Obama. Their job is to build him up and to tear down McCain.
Notice the pattern of building up people on "your side" and tearing down people on "their side". No hypocrisy no conspiracy. It is just how political competitions are run.
If you examine the Republican side you will also find people who were in competition with McCain during the primaries (one competition) and are now cooperating with McCain in the General Election (the other competition)
What is happening is not sinister nor uncommon when you have multi-level competitions. It happens in sports, politics, even busines.
If you are into sports, use All-star games as an analogy. On All-star teams you have players who just recently were in competition with each other, but are now in cooperation with each other.
