Examples of cornered in a Sentence

1. Beth Sanner:

   He's attacking right now because he has a goal. And he's not going to let up on this goal. He's not [ at ] a point in time where he can show this kind of weakness, so he has to keep going, so, the question is does he feel confident enough -- despite his claims of everything being on track. Clearly, that's not the case -- does he feel comfortable enough that he is on the right track that he just sticks with that, or is he feeling more and more cornered ?
