“The Convention is a political trade show that only happens once every four years and the whole world will be watching. We hope that you will be a part of our Democratic Convention Summit program that will offer substantive policy and political discourse, as well as a unique opportunity to personally connect with national Democratic leaders.”
Nancy Jacobson, Democratic fund-raiser and wife of Democratic pollster Mark Penn, speaking to the NYTimes about her $10,000,by invitation only, Democratic National Convention event with candidates, policy makers and the glitterati.
For the $10K, Ms. Jacobson promises at least three “private small group meetings with governors, senators and thought leaders (including Kevin Spacey and Laura Dern!)” and lunch with senior Obamaites at the Ritz-Carlton. The option is being offered to the tired, huddled masses yearning to choose the Democratic nominee for the leader of the free world. “This is for people who are looking for something more substantive rather than going from reception to reception.” Like...sex with the rich and powerful?
We're planning on attending but only if She & Him (M.Ward and Zooey Deschanel) agree to play at the Organic Small Batch Bourbon tasting to be held at a location-to-be-disclosed-via-text-message 15 minute before said soiree begins. I can't wait to trade shots with the Clintons and ask Michelle Obama for a dance.
