Clinton to continue, regrets racial tension in contest

By BETH FOUHY



NEW YORK (AP) -- Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton vowed to remain in the presidential race until the last primaries next month, but she hinted that the protracted contest with rival Barack Obama would end shortly thereafter.

"You don't walk off the court before the buzzer sounds," Clinton said on CNN. "You never know, you might get a three-point shot at the end."

The former first lady spoke to the major news networks in Washington as her campaign looked to parlay her lopsided victory in West Virginia into a last-ditch effort to persuade superdelegates to give her flagging candidacy another look.

Badly trailing Obama in fundraising and cash on hand, Clinton was hosting some 50 of her top national fundraisers at her home Wednesday to seek their help in raising money to compete in the final five contests in Kentucky, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Montana and South Dakota.

She faces a more than $20 million debt. Clinton owed $10 million at the end of March, has made loans to her campaign totaling of $11.4 million thus far and will more than likely end the primary season significantly in the red.
