Former President Barack Obama is hitting the campaign trail in advance of the midterm elections to lend support to a host of Democratic candidates in key states, including Ohio and California.
In the Buckeye State, that will entail a campaign stop next Thursday, Sept. 13, in Cleveland in support of gubernatorial candidate Richard Cordray as well as Betty Sutton. They’ll be joined by Sherrod Brown and other local Dems. A location and time have not yet been announced, but we’ll let you know as soon as we hear.
A spokesperson for Obama told the New York Times his message will be “that this moment in our country is too perilous for Democratic voters to sit out.” Health care and Republican economic policies, the Times reports, will take center stage.
In California, Obama will hit Orange County, where Democrats have a chance to break a traditional Republican stronghold on several seats.

Ah, the great Divider in Chief has come out of his bunker to entice the folks in OH to vote left, for the liberal candidate de jour. Unfortunately, this will be a one-sided vocal performance because only O’Bummer will be speaking, not the media, in the form of targeted questions about the crap that’s been uncovered in the last two years, centered around his administration. Well if you want to see him Ohio, here ya go. Have fun.
Worked for him twice, seen him in person several times…he’s a great motivational speaker. But if he doesn’t motivate enough people to get off their couches and vote, even by just throwing an absentee ballot into the mail, it won’t mean jackshit.
Not gonna go…it will make me too sad. Already feels like he was president a hundred years ago. probably the last “presidential” president we will ever have…[sob, sniff]
Wish I could go. Please #voteblue #bluewave #savetheusafromtheorangeidiot
I’ll be going to protest this POS! This idiot is not welcomed in Trump country. It will be FUN!!!!
