Clinton needed that win to reestablish what pundits call "momentum", that overused word that ranks up there with "narrative". 
Clinton's advantages in New York and the campaign are noteworthy: Two term NY Senator, former Secretary of State, former First Lady, a possible first woman President in the history of the nation and the early anointment by the DNC, and millions in PAC money. Her opposition? A 74 year-old Socialist Jew. And it was a closed primary, no voice for Independents.
Her 16 point NY win was a little less impressive than Sanders' 72 point win in his state of Vermont, capturing 86% of his home state to Hillary's 58%. 
Where will the Independents go with a Hillary ticket? And which candidate offers an option for those strongly anti-establishement Sanders voters?
