US primaries

Next Tuesday could well be the most significant in Hillary Clinton's political career.

That's the day that the citizens of Texas and Ohio will turn out to vote in the next round of primaries to decide who will be the Democratic presidential nominee.

It's not been a good few weeks for Hillary Clinton. Her opponent Barack Obama has landed blow after blow, winning all 11 delegate votes held since Super Tuesday back on February 5.

Some pundits are saying a loss in both these states will signal the end of the Clinton campaign, while others remain adamant that she will push on right through to the party convention in late August.
