Russert: Clinton cancels morning show appearances — Tim Russert, a colleague reports, just said that Hillary Clinton canceled her scheduled appearances on the morning shows tomorrow. — It's a sign of weakness she can ill afford at a moment when questions about whether she can continue are mounting.
Josh Marshall / Talking Points Memo:
HMMM — NBC just reported that Hillary Clinton is holding no public events tomorrow. We'd earlier reported that she'd cancelled her morning show appearances. But that's not that surprising. There's not a lot good to talk about. But canceling all public appearances, if that's what they're saying, is a different story.

Jennifer Rubin / Commentary:
Preview — If you want to know what Hillary's strategist, Harold Ickes, might whisper in the ears of superdelegates if she decides to stay in and fight, here is a good taste. Nothing quite beats Paul Begala lecturing Donna Brazile that Democrats can't win with a coalition of “eggheads and African Americans.”

Deacon / Power Line:
“THE BIGGEST FAIRY TALE EVER” IS ABOUT TO COME TRUE — Hillary Clinton held on to win the Indiana primary by a bit more than 20,000 votes, and two percentage points. Losing a neighboring state isn't usually a path to nomination, but in these circumstances it may well be enough effectively to end the hopes of his rival.
