Hillary Clinton, hoping for a game-changing win today in Pennsylvania, is already looking ahead at the next showdown -- in Indiana in two weeks.

Her campaign launched a new TV ad today that is all about the economy. The official unemployment rate in Indiana rose from 4.6 percent in February to 5.1 percent in March, the same as the national average.

"I think this election, particularly here in Indiana is about jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs," Clinton says in footage taken from a speech last month in Indianapolis.

"She's ready to turn our economy around, stop tax breaks for companies that move jobs overseas, fix unfair trade deals, stand up to China, create five million new jobs," the narrator chimes in as images of Clinton meeting with workers appear on the screen.

"The next president has to begin putting the American people first. Your jobs, your health care, your futures," Clinton concludes.
