    “Hillary Voters Come Home Thanks To Palin”

    In other news, former Clinton supporters in New York raised $500,000 for the Republican ticket at an event last night at the Grand Hyatt. (Caucus blog @ NYT)

    Woo. $500,000. That’s like a half hour of fundraising for Obama.

    I’m pretty sure those weren’t former Clinton supporters, but rather “former Clinton supporters.” It’s an important distinction.

    “That’s like a half hour of fundraising for Obama.”

    And The Uniter has received exactly how much from former Romney, Huckabee, or Giuliani supporters?

    ed,

    The reception for former Clinton supporters was spearheaded by Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, a former telecommunications entrepreneur and “Hillraiser” who brought in more than $100,000 for Mrs. Clinton’s campaign; Calvin Fayard, also a former Hillraiser and longtime Democratic donor from Louisiana, and Miguel Lausell, a former senior political adviser to the Clinton campaign from Puerto Rico, and John Coale, a former Hillraiser.

    “Former Clinton supporters” or former Clinton supporters?

    Interesting that you would refer to Obama as “The Uniter,” a title he has not claimed for himself, but was rather the title claimed by the current occupant as, one guesses, some sort of funny joke.
