COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Democratic Sen. Barack Obama, riding a tide of momentum, and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is seeking to stop him somewhere and somehow, will launch TV ads in Ohio and Texas, which hold crucial primaries in three weeks.
Having swept all five Democratic presidential contests over the weekend, Obama also was counting on wins in Tuesday's primaries in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia.
Barring a Clinton upset in one of those contests, Obama could have a strong wind at his back heading into the March 4 Ohio and Texas primaries. Clinton generally has done well in larger states, and she badly needs victories there.
"This is going to be a better month for Senator Obama than it will be for us," Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said Monday. "We believe next month will be a better month for us than it will be for him."
