Clinton’s landslide win does little to dislodge Obama

Clinton vowed to fight on after routing Obama by a margin of almost three to one in a contest that highlighted his struggle to win white, working class voters who will play a key role in November’s general election. “You will never quit and I won’t either,” Clinton told cheering supporters at her victory rally late on Tuesday in the mountainous state.
