Keeping Your Friends Close

Obama is playing it smart to help the coordinated campaign, but at the same time, put his own GOTV operation in play.

That’s why Obama’s camp is preparing a backup plan for field and get-out-the-vote work normally the task of a coordinated campaign with a different funding stream.
