Update from Obama's San Francisco DCCC fundraiser
Last night in San Francisco, President Obama kicked off a series of eight fundraisers he'll hold across the country this year to raise money for the Democrats in the midterm elections.

San Francisco Chronicle reporter Carla Marinucci had a front row seat and she joins us now with more on last night's events.
