<description>Call me a geek, but I kinda love reading the pool reports from the John McCain and Barack Obama fundraisers. In case you haven&apos;t been paying attention to campaign minutia, here&apos;s the background: Both candidates, in the interest of competitive transparency, recently decided to allow pooled press along on their high-dollar money-gathering adventures. There are strict rules, summarized in a recent pool report as: &quot;We can stare at and listen to the participants but no touching or talking.&quot; Still, even with those rules in place, the glimpse we now get of how the high-rollers roll is usually a fun read....</description>

<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Memoirs-David-Rockefeller/dp/0812969731/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215633702&sr=8-1" rel="nofollow">Memoirs - David Rockefeller</a></p>

<p>From page 405</p>

<p>For more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as "internationalists" and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it. -David Rockefeller</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Will in Seattle</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Well, you can have lunch with Michelle Obama this coming Wednesday for only $200 ... and get the Gov thrown in ...</p>

<p>You might find that cheaper.</p>

<p>Most of the Hilsraisers are more upset over the cut in "private" meetings with a Presidential candidate. Obama has this unfortunate desire to want to represent all of America, not just the ultra-rich and ultra-elite 0.1 percent. (source: Vanity Fair)</p>]]></description>
