]]> Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are preparing for a long and potentially brutal struggle for the Democratic nomination, with both campaign teams hinting darkly about descending into even more negative tactics as the race progresses.

Clinton’s campaign attribute her wins in the primaries in Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island last night to her aggressive tactics over the last week that forced Obama onto the defensive.

The Obama team today threatened to retaliate by exploring skeletons in Bill and Hillary’s past, and to demand disclosure of her tax returns. She has been reluctant to release the latter, possibly afraid to let voters see the extent of her personal fortune.

She failed to make a significant dent in Obama’s commanding lead in the race for the Democratic nomination in spite of her three stunning victories yesterday.

With counts almost completed, her haul from the victories in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island proved to be meagre, awarding her only 12 more delegates than her rival.
