Inevitable:
President Obama hit the Bay Area for a fast cash-and-grab fundraising drive Wednesday, but there were signs that even in one of the nation’s most reliable Democratic ATMs, donor fatigue is setting in.
That SFGate article notes that Obama has made 18 trips to the Bay Area during his presidency.
There’s even an indication that the president is just going through the motions:
The president’s perfunctory stump speech at the fundraiser — at least the portion witnessed by the press pool, which was ushered out for the question-and-answer session — reprised the same themes he addressed in his last visit to the Bay Area. He made no mention in his public remarks of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in Gaza, the downing of a Malaysian passenger plane over Russian separatist-controlled territory in Ukraine or other current events.
