Romney: California Fundraisers & Protests

GOP Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney is making a two-day campaign swing through the Golden State next week. Romney's trip to California is mainly to raise funds for his campaign which has spent tens of millions of dollars already for the early primaries and caucuses. Major fundraisers are planned for several locations in Southern California, the Bay Area, and Stockton. Unless a "last minute" campaign event gets scheduled, Romney will not be making a stop in Fresno or the Central Valley this time to collect any big checks. Romney has made previous fundraising trips to Fresno dating back to last summer. The former Massachusetts Governor will also be making an appearance on Jay Leno's late night TV show.
