The narrative

Howard Kurtz has a roundup of some of the headlines and tones (starts middle of page 2,) and the general tone is that it's over.

Mark Halperin also has a collection of the openings on the morning shows, and a few more print items on tone.

(NYTimes) Patrick Healy has a piece loaded with quotes from Clinton advisers and others around the campaign suggesting that it may be time to end it.

From the WaPo's "news" piece, "while Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton posted a razor-thin win in the hotly contested Indiana primary as she sought to keep her shaky candidacy for the nomination alive."

If you didn't see it, Tim Russert pretty much called it last night on MSNBC (YouTube,) "We Now Know Who the Nominee Will Be."

(It's also interesting that this time, the onus isn't on Obama to "close the deal," but instead on Clinton to justify continuing.)

And, because of the late night, the critical Op/Ed's will likely be coming in tomorrow, not today.
