Follow the money
The biggest news of the morning is the fact that Sen. Clinton lent her campaign another 6.1 million dollars in April. That is on top of the 5 mil she lent the previous month.
After Obama's blowout win in North Carolina and the wire-thin Clinton "victory" in Indiana, her momentum is dead. No donors will throw good money after a bad campaign now. This is the effective end of the trail for Sen. Clinton. The remaining question is how she ends it. A bad ending flavored with negativity and venom would consign her to the trash heap of history. A graceful last act in which core issues are raised and Democratic party values are upheld would unite the party and launch Sen. Obama's campaign toward victory in the fall. If Sen. Clinton choses to go out this way she will be hailed as a true champion, one of the most important political leaders in our history.
