Several former Clinton Administration officials were among the contributors who attended a Barack Obama fundraiser on Thursday night at the Bethesda, Md., home of Reed Hundt, who was Federal Communications Commission Chairman during the Clinton Administration.

William Kennard, who also chaired the FCC during the Clinton Administration, was an official "host" for the evening. A campaign spokesman declined to provide an estimate of money was raised at the event.

Richard Clarke, author and counter-terrorism coordinator for the Clinton Administration and early Bush Administration was among those who contributed at the fundraiser, said an Obama insider.

Amb. Charlene Barshefsky, who was U.S. Trade Representative during the Clinton Administration, was among the Obama donors at the event. Miriam Sapiro, a counselor to Clinton on Balkans policy who helped negotiate the 1995 Dayton Accords, was an official "co-host."

I guess Carville and Begala will have to go to work discrediting them now. Nice knowing ya, Dick Clarke, you'll never eat lunch in this town again.


I just don't understand why this is happening to Hillary,she's has such a warm personality and she's so qualified to be America's next President.
Hmmmmmm?

Oh, but Jeff, they have. Big Bill was whining today about the NYTimes and how they are not as nice to Hil as to Barack. Then he went on to bend the truth quite abit about Barack not really being against the war.
Oh, desparation is so fun. Especially when it's from the Hillary camp looking at Barack Obama catching up to them so quick and scary.


Hey Paulo:

I just don't understand why you have so much time to post and still refuse to do the research to back up your post from February 20th, you remember, the one where you claim that Hillary's campaign staff was behind the Obama "madrassa" smear. Everyone here is still waiting for you to post your PROOF to back up your FALSE ALLEGATION.

What's taking you so long? Cat's got your tongue? Or are you finally ready to admit that you have no such proof and that you are wrong?
