Jan. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Barack Obama, fresh from a landslide victory over Hillary Clinton in the South Carolina Democratic presidential primary, plans to continue a campaign that is long on the need for change and inspiration and short on specifics.

`Economic Challenges'

In an interview on CBS's ``Face the Nation'' yesterday, Hillary Clinton, 60, zeroed in on economic issues. ``I am particularly focused on doing what I can to try to get President Bush to be much more vigorous in responding to our economic challenges,'' she said. ``It doesn't seem as though he really gets it.''

On the economy, the difficulty for Clinton will be to differentiate her positions from Obama's. According to people familiar with her campaign, she plans to hit harder on the housing crisis and, in California, on her alternative energy policies. The campaign is also counting on a victory in tomorrow's Florida primary to give her momentum.
