Hillary Rodham Clinton rightly credits Ohio with rejuvenating her
presidential campaign.
''You know what they say: As Ohio goes, so goes the nation,'' Clinton
told the cheering crowd of supporters in Columbus celebrating her
primary victory Tuesday night. ''Well, this nation's coming back and
so is this campaign.''
Why she won is a more complex question. The answer most often heard is
that her campaign's emphasis on the economy resonated deeply in a
state that never recovered from the 2001 recession.
