STEUBENVILLE, Ohio -- Former President Bill Clinton campaigned for his wife, Hillary in several Ohio towns today.

The Ohio primary is viewed as one of the most important in the democratic race for the presidential nomination.

Clinton clashed with some abortion protesters during his speech, stopping to address them directly, and raising his voice in the process.

Clinton kicked off the campaign tour of the state Sunday in Toledo, telling hundreds of his wife's supporters that she is the only presidential candidate who can help deal with the nation's foreclosure crisis.

He was joined by Gov. Ted Strickland, who has endorsed Hillary Clinton.

Clinton suggested to the Canton audience that voters must decide between Barack Obama's fresh approach and Sen. Clinton's experience.
