Run For The Roses

LOUISVILLE, KY -- Perhaps signaling her intention to fight on beyond next Tuesday's contests in Indiana and North Carolina, Hillary Clinton paid a visit to her Kentucky campaign headquarters this afternoon.

"We're working hard in Indiana and North Carolina," she told staff and volunteers in the small storefront office. "Then we go to West Virginia, and then we'll be right here. We've got lots of great support for us around the state."

She said that she was sorry that she would miss the Kentucky Derby, but noted that Chelsea Clinton would be on hand.

"I want everybody to place a little money the filly," she said.

Clinton also paid a visit to the editorial board of the Louisville Courier-Journal, the largest newspaper in Kentucky. The paper is also read in southeastern Indiana.

Kentucky votes on May 20.

You're so right, Hillary! -- They should "place" their money on the filly. Because as everyone who has seen "The Sting" knows, a "place" bet is a bet that the horse will run *second.*
