Harry Reid's no slouch in the fundraising department, with $3.3 million already on hand for next year's reelection campaign, which has thus far drawn lots of press too.
And no viable opponent from the state's battered Republican Party.
Still, in politics these days you can never have too much money, as someone showed last fall by raising $750 million, which is even more than those outrageous AIG bonuses. Now Happy Harry's bringing in Bette. And Sheryl. And some guy named Barack.
All in the name of Money.
And what better way for a new Democratic administration to symbolize cutting out excess in a time of hardship for millions of Americans than to hold a mega-fundraiser in Las Vegas, that urban personification of understatement, for a guy with millions in hand already and no one to spend it against?
Though the Democratic Senate majority leader's May 26 fundraiser at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace will feature Strip headliner Midler and songstress Crow, the biggest draw will be the commander in chief himself.

The Repub than runs against Reid should run that clip in which Obama single handedly got a convention moved from Vegas to CA. over and over and over.

After Obama pissed off all the union casino and hotel employees in Las Vegas by speaking out against companies holding conventions there, he is really kissing ass now. :loser:
