Greg Sargent at TPM gives a rundown over at his blog on the "road show" presentation given to Hillary's top fundraisers today in Washington, DC.

So the basic strategy is to fight this to the bitter end, debate their position to the superdelegates and sway their vote, and figure out how to seat Michigan and Florida.
It is evident to all of us political junkies, the liberal media (Maddow, Miller, Schulz, Rhodes) that Team Hillary is completely delusional about their position.
Even though Hillary has lost on every count (popular count, pledged delegates, number of states), they refuse to admit it.
I feel like I am in an echo chamber when I say this: This is completely mind boggling that "they don't get it."
It's like Somosa in the bunker as the rebels are closing in on him in Nicaragua. I won't use the other comparison of that person in Berlin in WWII.
There was a comment posted in Greg's piece that echos what I've been asking about since yesterday: How are they going to afford to keep this thing going to Pennsylvania, much less past it to Puerto Rico?
They've already mortgaged themselves up to their underpants (not to mention mortgaging their integrity).
I think the biggest piece of how this plays out is how much they are able to raise after this week. Because if they run out of gas, that's about all they can do unless the former Watergate investigator starts to skirt federal election laws.
How ironic would that be?
Update: Instead of getting frustrated - my suggestion is to get active. donate to obama, volunteer, if you know personally know people in Pennsylvania or North Carolina - call or email them.
Lastly, call you democratic representatives for whom you are a constituent and urge them to support Obama.
DONATE: the biggest thing is that Obama is going to need cash to take this thing all the way to Puerto Rico, Montana and South Dakota. So bury her by donating what you can and asking your friends to do the same.
