Obama's N.Y. Fund-Raisers Turn Down V.I.P.s

The Barack Obama fund-raisers in New York have to turn away contributors--and possibly their money!--because there are too many who want a high-priced ticket to the photo reception at his Grand Hyatt event tomorrow.

"We really hate to turn money away – especially this much - but we don’t have a choice," says an email forwarded to me from an Obama fund-raiser, who told me it is being circulated among the event's hosts.
