Making him one of Team Obama’s top bundlers.
Via WHD (1/19/12):
President Obama raised up to $1.8 million at a fundraiser last night at Spike Lee’s home in New York City.
The event was one of an incredible four Manhattan fundraisers attended in a single evening by president. Obama also held court twice at the swank Daniel restaurant in Midtown and appeared at the Apollo Theater before getting home to the White House after midnight.
The campaign did not release the fundraising total, but tickets for the Lee shindig were $35,800, according to reports, and the pool report said seating was for 50.
The Middle Class Warrior-in-Chief last August mingled with Lee at a party on Martha’s Vineyard, where the director apparently also takes his vacations during the summer.
