1. Obama is polling poorly there.
2. It’s a technique of rallying his most devout supporters to send him more money.
I cannot believe it’s the former.
I can't believe it's the latter either. CA has a 10.6% unemployment rate. City after city is going bankrupt. BO has lobbed ad after ad at his followers urging them to donate wedding gifts and forego dinner so they can support his campaign. Next thing you know he'll be going after the lint in their pockets. So where's he going to get this money?
From those democrats and independents who believe the Obama ads that claim the "republican controlled Congress" (what they really mean is The House) is the reason for the bad economy.
Why would they believe anything different. Have you seen John Boehner coming out and begging to differ?
