Hillary Clinton at The Abbey, Insider Account
Hillary Clinton is a Political Rock Star And I’m An Idiot
We’ll get to why I’m an idiot in a bit but first a little about why Hillary is a political rock star. Last night, after her appearance on the LOGO-HRC Presidential Forum, she made her way over to West Hollywood hot spot The Abbey for what Abbey owner David Cooley claimed to be the first presidential candidate fundraiser at a predominantly gay establishment. To me this a pretty huge, history-making feat and I almost felt it was internally important that I attend. A few blocks over on La Cienega Blvd, Barack Obama was holding his own fundraiser at the somewhat gay Area ($250 a ticket) and John Edwards was having his at the not really gay at all Republic ($15 a ticket).
