Clinton Facing Narrower Path To Nomination
She has to defeat Mr. Obama soundly in Pennsylvania next month to buttress her argument that she holds an advantage in big general election states.

She needs to lead in the total popular vote after the primaries end in June.

And Mrs. Clinton is looking for some development to shake confidence in Mr. Obama so that superdelegates, Democratic Party leaders and elected officials who are free to decide which candidate to support overturn his lead among the pledged delegates from primaries and caucuses.

Part of that strategy has been suggesting the liability of Obama's ties to Rev. Jeremiah Wright:

Mrs. Clinton's advisers said they had spent recent days making the case to wavering superdelegates that Mr. Obama's association with Mr. Wright would doom their party in the general election.

3. The media needs to wake up to HRC's desperate situation.
And stop pretending like this is a 50/50 race.

9. They're awake to it.
That's why they are pushing this so hard. With their help she can overcome the Obama insurgency, and give the nod to the DLC

which will then lose to the republicans.

And the half-dozen corporations that control the US media will be very, very happy.
