House parties for Hillary; Goo Goo Dolls for Obama

As Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama prepare for some local fundraisers tonight in Los Angeles, both are also planning a visible presence to bring out their supporters.
For Obama, fresh off the Oprah-mania tour in Iowa and South Carolina, it will be a Universal City event with the Goo Goo Dolls and Ne-Yo.
Clinton, will be a private fundraiser as more than 300 house parties are planned around the state to reach out to volunteers.
Both campaigns are showing a lot of interest in California with its Feb. 5 presidential primary and, even more important, the mailing soon of absentee ballots.
