Bon Jovi to Host Fundraiser for Obama
(CBS)
(HARRISBURG, Pa) Barack Obama raised $10 million dollars yesterday – a one day record for the campaign –but there's no such thing as too much money in politics. Tonight, Obama heads to New Jersey for a brief but rather lucrative evening at the home of rocker, Jon Bon Jovi. The event, dubbed as a dinner with Obama, will cost supporters $30,800 per person.
Bon Jovi campaigned extensively for John Kerry in 2004, and has a long history of campaigning for the Democratic Party.
