What is the current analysis of California? It is pretty much in the clutches of the Democrats but with a 11 to 12 % Unemployment rate and all the problems there is there any snowball’s chance this state is is play?????

CA is in bad shape economically, and I understand BO is spending a lot of advertising dollars here.

One year ago Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law the "winner take all" rule that the winner of the national popular vote will win ALL of CA's electoral votes.

I think you missed the most relevant sentence in the article you linked:

The change approved by Brown will occur only if it is adopted by states with a majority of the electoral votes in the country. California is the eighth state to approve the new system.

“CA is in bad shape economically, and I understand BO is spending a lot of advertising dollars here.”

I was wondering about that. I’m pretty confident that the Kenyan is going to lose this election but have little doubt he will still carry CA. So I’m curious why we’re getting all these Obama ads. I know they’re in a panic and now begging for contributions, so why spend all the money here?
