Senator McCain will be in New York tonight attending a fundraiser that will net him $7 million. That's a nice haul. :)
John McCain will raise over $7 million tonight at a high-dollar New York fundraiser, his largest one-event haul yet during the campaign, according to sources familiar with the expected haul.
The fundraiser, to be held at the Sheraton in Midtown Manhattan, will also be one of the biggest in New York political history.
19 co-hosts will raise $100,000 each and 39 co-chairs have pledged to bring in $25,000.
The main reception costs $1,000 and the VIP pre-party and photo op will run you $25,000.
The take, of course, is bolstered by the much higher limits set up by hybrid McCain's Victory Committee. Donors are not constrained by the $2,300 cap on individuals and can give tens of thousands of their own cash.
The event tonight is being spearheaded by Jets owner Woody Johnson, an heir to the Johnson & Johnson fortune and top McCain bundler. Rudy Giuliani will appear and speak before McCain.
After the reception, Johnson is to host a smaller dinner with the McCains and those fundraisers who brought in $100,000 at his home in Manhattan.

Here is a local news report in San Francisco where John McCain held a fundraiser on March 26, 2008. The report focuses on a woman who is an Obama supporter, but says she would vote for John McCain if Obama is denied the nomination -- the Democrats' worst nightmare. A recent Gallup Poll showing 28% of Hillary Clinton voters would support McCain if Obama is nominated is also discussed. These voters who would opt for John McCain if their candidate is not nominated are now being called, "Donner Party Democrats." Below is the Wiki explanation of the "Donner Party."
The Donner Party was a group of California-bound American settlers caught up in the "westering fever" of the 1840s. After becoming snowbound in the Sierra Nevada in the winter of 1846–1847, some of the emigrants resorted to cannibalism.
