Yes indeed. It was created before last nights results came in.
It seems safe to say the primary season is effectively done, as in, stick a fork in it. At least on the R side. Except for the possibility of a Clinton indictment, it's pretty much over on the D side too.

I don't think so. I think that the billionaires have to start coming out to the partisans making it clear that THEY think it's over, and that Trump is the man.
As long as house stewards like Cruz and Kasich think they're doing the bidding of rich and powerful people, they'll fight on and on.
For it to be effectively over, it would be best for Trump to win Indiana. That would make him nominee. If that doesn't happen, then Trump needs to win California and New Jersey. He will, but it has to be clear.
Now, it would be grand if Cruz got the message and dropped out today. But it's more likely that Cruz will agree to be Kasich's Veep and fight on...unless the billionaires move first.
