Video: Aiming for Ohio



>>> we switch gears to the presidential campaign on this eve of super tuesday. the big cluster of gop primaries as many states are in play tomorrow night as the number of states decided so far. and perhaps the biggest prize for a lot of reasons is ohio . peter alexander is in zanesville tonight.

>> reporter: good evening, brian. given the choice of where to host its party tomorrow tonight to give you the sense of the volatility in this campaign, the romney campaign chose massachusetts. that's the state where romney served as governor and the one state where advisers say they're certain they're going to win tomorrow. with a fierce tug of war atop the republican field, mitt romney and rick santorum are making their final pitches on the eve of super tuesday. it could alter the course of this campaign.

>> give me your vote tomorrow, get out and vote.

>> reporter: at stake, 11 states and 424 delegates, more than any other single day all primary season. the most heavily sought-after prize, the general election battleground of ohio where santorum is appealing to the state's blue-collar base, again today attacking moum romney 's health care overhaul in massachusetts.

>> i need an emphatic yes from you that you will repeal obamacare.

>> why would i not? there's no --

>> reporter: in a campaign season consistent perhaps only for its inconsistency, with a string of different front-runners from michele bachmann to herman cain to rick perry , romney is arguing that he can finally focus on the general election with a victory in ohio .

>> then we can start organizing our effort to make sure that we replace president obama .

>> reporter: romney has tried to focus on mr. obama before, only to be tripped up by a reluctant republican electorate.

>> i shouldn't be here if you look at any political expert and you look at the money that's been spent, at the air time that's been given, but we're here for a reason.

>> reporter: and for his part, newt gingrich is counting on the south, including his home state of georgia to help him reinvigorate his stalled campaign. ron paul just returning from alaska where he's hoping to get his campaign's first primary win.

>> peter alexander on the nonstop trail happens to be stopping tonight in zanesville, thanks for
