Come late June, Barack Obama will be traveling to Tinseltown.
This time he’ll arrive as the presumptive Democrat nominee.
Now that the primary is over, Hillary’s Hollywood contingent is expected to open up its coffers for Obama.
A fundraiser is set to be held at the Los Angeles Music Center, with invites going out to the wealthiest Dem donors in So Cal.
In all probability, the H-bash will add megabucks to Obama’s already sizable war chest.
During the 2004 presidential campaign season, dreary John Kerry was able to raise $5 mill at a celebrity-laden event, which was held at one LA Music Center venue, the Walt Disney Concert Hall.
Although John McCain has more buddies in Hollywood than any Republican since Ronald Reagan, any attempts to match or even come close to what Obama will tap from Tinseltown are likely to fail miserably.
As Chad Griffen, veteran political advisor to Rob Reiner, told the Los Angeles Times, “I can’t imagine anyone in the entertainment industry going from Hillary Clinton to John McCain.”
Some Operation Chaos devotees might beg to differ.
