Dang, I thought the article was about Obama tapping a Celeb.....
Anyway,
This just goes to show that Obama is not running his campaign on small donations. Kinda funny that the same people he says will pay higher taxes are
bending over backwards to help him. Higher taxes for the rich..Yep I buy that one what about you?
Presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), heavily reliant on major donors and celebrities despite his public emphasis on small
contributors, upped the ante this week to enter his VIP donor world. A new high was set Monday for hosting or chairing an Obama event; chairs of his
birthday fund-raiser in Boston had to raise $285,000; co-chairs needed to collect $142,500.
