I hear that often: Obama ads running in CA. There are 2 possible reasons:
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.
Maybe he’s fighting for popular vote victory to cause a major problem for Romney administration...?
No idea.
3. he is working his GOTV so RR can’t win the popular vote and get CA’s electoral votes.
If RR wins the pop but loses the electoral the swing of CA electors could tip it to RR..
And I am sure he is shaking down his supporters for money.

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?
He’s running lots of ads here in Vermont as well. Not sure why, unless the intent is for them to be seen in NH.
