Hillary: More Determined Than Ever
A day after winning the West Virginia Primary, Hillary Clinton will be back in Washington, District of Columbia again today, meeting with advisers and trying to map out some kind of strategy that can bring victory against Barack Obama.
"I am more determined than ever to carry on this campaign," Clinton told supporters in Charleston, West Virginia.
"The bottom line is that the White House is won in the swing states, and I am winning the swing states," Clinton said, referring especially to Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Clinton made sure to mention that no Democrat has won the White House since 1916 without winning West Virginia.
While Clinton stays off the campaign trail today, it's not some kind of sign that she is about to quit, as her campaign has already put out a schedule that has her going to South Dakota and Oregon in coming days, two of the states still to vote.
Also sandwiched in there is a trip to California, which must be a fund raising event.
Today's goal is clearly to take her message to the media.
"She will appear on national news programs including: ABC World News, CBS Evening News, CNN's Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, FOX News, and NBC Nightly News," said a release from the Clinton campaign.
Meanwhile, Bill Clinton will be in Montana, South Dakota and Kentucky over the next two days, as he continues to work a lot of small towns for his wife.
There was even good news for the former President in the West Virginia exit poll data, as six in ten voters said Bill Clinton's campaigning was important in choosing a candidate. Eight in 10 of them voted for his wife.
The problem for Hillary and Bill is pretty simple right now. You can count on one hand the number of contests that are left. They need to find some delegates in the attic if possible.
Kentucky, Oregon, Puerto Rico, South Dakota and Montana. That's all.
So, Hillary Clinton again tried last night to put the focus on the delegate battle over Florida and Michigan last night, which if she could count them, would certainly help her close the gap on Obama.
"We should honor the votes cast by 2.3 million people in those states and seat all the delegates," Clinton told cheering supporters in West Virginia.
If she were only about 15 delegates behind, that argument would have a lot more teeth in it.
Clinton then made the case that I bet we will hear repeatedly on the news from her.
"I am in this race because I believe I am the strongest candidate," Clinton said.
Note to Barack Obama: She isn't going away until you hammer the nail in the coffin yourself.
