Another sign that the Democratic race is likely over...

Obama's Chief Strategist, David Alexrod, says that Obama won't be spending all his time in upcoming primary states anymore.

"I don't think we are doing to spend our time solely in primary states," Axelrod said aboard the campaign plane from Raleigh to Chicago.

When asked whether that means Obama will campaign in general election states, he said: "I guess you can infer that from what I said."

"Senator McCain has basically run free for some time now," Axelrod said. "Everybody is eager to get on with this. We are not going to take anything for granted. But we are also going to spend time addressing broader issues."
