DAILY MAIL: Barack Obama has splashed twice as much cash as Hillary Clinton in his determination to land decisive blows in tomorrow's two primaries.
The Illinois senator's spending on TV commercials in Texas since early February is £5million, double that of Mrs Clinton.
He outspent his Democratic rival by a similar margin in Ohio.
Last month the Obama campaign raised a record £25million, which he has used to fund his final push for votes.
Mr Obama put together a team of 350 paid organisers across both states, while Mrs Clinton has had to rely mainly on volunteers.
Defeats in the two delegaterich states will all but end her push for the White House.
Polls show Mr Obama, 46, has moved into a slight lead in Texas after trailing for months. In Ohio, the 60- year- old former first lady retains an edge.
"Senator Obama is spending a lot of money on TV. If this can be purchased, he can win it,' Ohio state governor Ted Strickland said yesterday. Big spender Obama goes in for the kill ahead of Tuesday's make-or-break primaries >>> By David Gardner
