Yesterday I posted that Barack Obama's campaign is offering donors the chance to have dinner with the man himself. In said post I expressed disappointment that Hillary Clinton's campaign wasn't doing the same thing again. However, one thing is for certain about Hillary Clinton: she will not be outdone if she can help it.

For a while now, there have been emails from the Clinton camp about an Elton John concert in New York city that he was throwing in order to raise money for her campaign. The initial email was a simple solicitation for donations which would count as the purchase price of a ticket. A subsequent email from daughter Chelsea Clinton stated that anyone who signed up to volunteer for the campaign prior to April 2^nd would be entered into a drawing for a chance to attend the concert. I already qualify for that, obviously. Finally, the following was posted on Facebook for those who have their profiles linked to Hillary Clinton as a supporter:

We're sending two supporters, along with their guests, to New York with VIP tickets for this very special, one-night-only concert on April 9, and it could be you. We will have a chance to talk just you and I -- and you will get to meet Elton John at the party we're throwing afterwards. It's going to be a great night.

Your support is so important to my campaign right now. As we ramp up our campaign in Pennsylvania, I need your help to make sure we have the resources we need to win. If you enter, you and I might see each other in New York on April 9. Make a contribution today.

Egads! Chances to meet both of the potential Democratic presidential candidates face to face? Take my money - please! Meanwhile, what do the republicans have to offer...?

"Vote for us or the terrorists win!"

Right...I'll take a pass and stick with the political party where all the fun people hang out.
