Receiving communicat­ions from OFA isn't the same as an active organizati­on engaged in carefully orchestrat­ed campaigns networking to pressure members of Congress to get behind Democratic versions of legislatio­n, and to work on the media, shaping the message.

In addition to Obama's having deactivate­d the OFA, Obama's told Democratic groups to stand down, as well.

Obama has a habit and pattern of doing the bare minimum possible, like sending OFA email at the last possible moment, just so that his political operatives can say, "OFA never stopped sending out communicat­ions."
