Committee headquarters in Washington for a series of private meetings with RNC leaders, where they began to coordinate the party's strategy and operations for the general election. Topics addressed during the Capitol Hill talks included finance, communications, opposition research, field organization, and data sharing, according to several Republican officials familiar with the sessions."

The outreach by Carson is an apparent effort both to soothe tensions between Trump and Ryan ahead of their highly anticipated meeting on Capitol Hill and to establish a framework for that discussion."

But to actually "force Ry­an out, Trump would have to stack the con­ven­tion's ob­scure Com­mit­tee on Per­man­ent Or­gan­iz­a­tion, which re­com­mends a chair for the con­ven­tion, as well as win over a ma­jor­ity of the floor del­eg­ates them­selves."

As ... Clinton and ... Sanders have campaigned here in recent weeks, they have found frustrated voters who express the kinds of anxieties heard all across the country - only with a far greater degree of urgency and pain, as they see their communities wither before their eyes."

SURVEY SAYS: A trio of new polls from Quinnipiac University in Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania show Clinton and Trump running neck-and-neck in those three swing states. Clinton leads Trump 43 to 42% in Florida and Pennsylvania, while Trump leads Clinton 43 to 39% in Ohio. Sanders narrowly leads Trump in Florida and Ohio, and leads Trump 47 to 41% in Pennsylvania.

Trump over the subject. ... Trump ... has invoked Mr. Clinton's sexual past, describing Mrs. Clinton as an 'enabler' and suggesting that she has no credibility to question his own treatment of women."

She's totally controlled by Wall Street.' That's not the only area where the presumptive Republican nominee sounds like Sanders, who is challenging Clinton for the Democratic nomination. On a series of issues, including free trade and foreign military intervention, Trump is effectively running to the left not only of his own party but also of Clinton."

Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), "which played out in public rat-a-tat-tat bursts, 140 characters at a time, also offered a vivid preview of how the six months until Election Day could unfold, with the popular ... Warren emerging as a unifier of the Democratic base and ... Trump - so far, at least - still unable to resist small provocations as he tries to become a more disciplined general election candidate." Warren "is one of the few high-profile leaders in either party to repeatedly challenge ... Trump with clarity and directness, portraying him as both dangerous and a charlatan. She began her assault in a March 21 Facebook post, describing his candidacy as a 'serious threat' and calling him 'a loser' - one of the worst insults in the Trump lexicon."
