Clinton campaign: Tuesday night will be the beginning of "the next phase of the campaign"


As I wrote earlier today, it's increasingly looking like Hillary has plans to keep her campaign going until the convention. Now her staff is hinting just that - that Tuesday night won't be the end, it will be the beginning! If Hillary won't agree that the first person to reach 2,118 is our nominee, then Harry Reid, Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi need to have another chat with a certain insane woman before all out war breaks out later this week. She really is just a breathtakingly horrible person.

From Ben Smith:

Ken Vogel reports from the Clinton bubble a Clinton spokesman is pushing back on the notion of a concession soon, something even many of her aides and top supporters now expect.

Hillary Clinton will not drop out of the presidential race Tuesday or in several days that follow, the spokesman,Mo Elleithee, said Monday afternoon.

"It's pretty clear that she's not conceding," Elleithee told reporters on Clinton's campaign plane en route from Rapid City, S.D. to Sioux City, Iowa.

Instead, Elleithee said Clinton would be "aggressively courting" superdelegates and "putting together the next phase of the campaign," which he said could include campaign events around the country.
More from ABC:
When asked why Clinton was spending tomorrow in New York at an event the campaign is calling a "victory party," Clinton’s spokesperson said, “it’s a good way to close out this phase of the campaign is come to New York bring all of her supporters together, have a big celebratory election night party as we move into the next phase of the campaign which is obviously the courting of these delegates.”
That would be the phase where what was left of the Clinton good name is utterly and completely destroyed by the two biggest narcissists our party has ever seen.
