Obama Agrees to Debates with Clinton
By Shailagh Murray

OMAHA, Neb. -- Sen. Barack Obama agreed to two new debates with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and saw his post-Super Tuesday fundraising haul climb to over $7 million, as he hopscotched across the country seeking a trio of wins on Saturday.

Obama and Clinton will face off on Tuesday, Feb. 26, at Cleveland State University, in a debated hosted by NBC News and WKYC, the NBC affiliate in Cleveland. Although terms haven't been settled, Obama aides said the candidates would also meet in Texas, which votes the same day as Ohio, March 4.

The Democratic spotlight turns next to Louisiana, Nebraska and Washington, and today Obama traveled the long arc between the three states, looking to expand his delegate count and add new states to his victory column, while building momentum headed into the delegate-rich "Potomac primaries" on Tuesday in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia.

2. Smart move for Obama. He chose to debate her before the vote in two states where it is claimed

that she has an edge.

Very good move!!!

He has controlled the process so that it benefits him, not her!
