Obama Visits California March 18

Obama is expected to talk about -- what else-- the economy. He will be holding a town hall at the Orange County Fairgrounds at 4 p.m. 
On Thursday, Obama will visit the Edison International Electric Vehicle Technical Center in Pomona. The center is working on large scale adoption of electric vehicles. Obama will also hold a town hall tomorrow in LA at 1 pm.
Update: Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will accompany Obama.
Obama will also be on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno March 19.

Update: Several thousand waited for just 1,000 tickets that are now gone. Some people camped out. But it will be live on CNN and MSNBC tomorrow, I'm sure.
