No hero's welcome for Obama in California
Washington Examiner ^ | OCTOBER 9, 2014 | BRIAN HUGHES

Posted on 10/10/2014 2:05:05 PM PDT by South40

President Obama embarks on a three-day fundraising swing Thursday in California, friendly political territory meant to pump cash into Democratic campaign coffers in the final scramble before November’s midterms.

However, it’s not as friendly anymore as the White House would have hoped.

The president’s support is eroding in even one of the most reliably blue states nationwide, with his approval ratings following the same downward trajectory as in less-welcoming political environments.

The trend, analysts said, is of national importance.

California has huge red areas. There are really just a few blue cities that make CA the disaster that it is.

And apparently those few blue cities are tired of his crap too.

Yeah the red comes from the dems in control bleeding us dry! There is no balance in this state and the morons will most likely return moonbeam, despite being a worse speaker than anyone in the world as well as the worst liar, the liberal sheeple will return him.

Maybe Obama can sell the San Gabriel mountains to the highest bidder.

True, just about everywhere. As a rule, big cities are cesspits of liberalism.

For one thing, the traffic disruptions around his route are massive. That doesn’t sit well with anyone.

Even a Leftist has to drive home, or off to work.

Here’s this ass-hat living the high-life, while the peons have to dodge him on the streets. And some of these areas he visits, are not middle-income either.

Even “Richie Rich” can get tired of this lump of camel manure.

This would be true no matter which state you filled in for CA, for the most part.

How many times can someone look at an empty suit and admire its nothingness?

And how many $35,000/plate dinners can one attend and be enthralled with how well someone reads from a teleprompter?

True, but unfortunately, they're mostly rural, with sparse populations.

I know several people who supported Barry and went to a few $32,500 fundraisers for 2008 and 2012.

None are going to these events.

Then again, Barry goes lame the day after the election.

So not much reason to blow a wad of money on him again.
