NY Post Finds One Man Who Sides With Fort Hood Shooter
Yesterday, Senator Barack Obama told 200 fundraisers that he had made a $2,300 personal check to Senator Hillary Clinton's campaign to help her retire her campaign debt. Clinton also appeared at the Mayflower Hotel (yes, where Eliot Spitzer had his rendez-vous with Kristen), where the focus was on the Democratic presidential contender and his one-time rival.
The Washington Post described the event as "emotional and upbeat." Still, ABC News reports some Clinton donors weren't totally at ease, with one saying, "This felt like when your mom forces you to go visit your Aunt Ida and she has to pinch your cheeks and you're sitting there in an uncomfortable suit and you can't wait to leave." Later today Clinton and Obama will appear together in public--in Unity, NH--for the first time since Clinton conceded.
On the other side of the pond, Clinton's spouse and daughter attended friend Sir Elton John's own fundraiser, the White Tie & Tiaras Ball, which raised money for the Elton John Aids Foundation. It's unclear if Sir Elton will help Clinton with her debt--he did say he'd "be there for her" earlier this year.

is that Elton John or Dame Judi Dench in that photo?
psst-- hey jen, it helps to list photo captions in the order people appear. in this case, I'm guessing it's left-to-right, and elton john is second, not first.
Can we stop using the ridiculous honorific "Sir"? We are Americans, not Brits.
Anyone that gives Hillary money now should be taken out back and beaten. If she and Bill had an ounce of decency they would reclassify their "loan" to her campaign as spending their own money.
My first reaction to that photo was that Chelsea looks pretty good, especially standing next to what looks like a retarded kid wearing a special olympics medal. Elton John?
When she stands next to Elton, you can barely notice Chelsea's had work done.
Why is she wearing a big men's watch?
Sorry sadpanda, I got a little mixed up at the moment -- I was so dazzled by Elton's bling (scroll down).
Holy crap... Elton looks like some evil cartoon rabbit. What the hell happened? I seriously hate when celebs get too much work done... some is fine but when you look like a freakshow it's just wrong! BTW, does anyone else think it's a total insult that Obama gave Hilary a whopping $2300? Why bother giving her anything? That's ridiculous.
g0thamg1rl, the 2300 donation from Obama is actually the largest amount one may donate to a specific campaign. Not insulting so much as the law.
damn, that kid from jerry maguire sure has aged.
gritting his teeth, furnish mutters under his breath "just die you old queen, just die already".
Chelsea's definitely has cleaned up well, but to #7's point, she needs a better formal watch.
wow. elton looks wretched.
BootyInMyEye: LOL, awesome.
Chelsea's Katie Couric makeover looks good, but she's apparently lost her tits. Elton's hair is exploring the outer limits of molecular chemistry.
Outter, thanks for telling me. I just KNEW there had to be a reason for that obscure amount... now I know. The news should have mentioned that... Thanks again :-)
