Excerpt:

The John Edwards campaign sent an email out about a fundraiser Hillary Clinton is having yesterday that gives special interests government access for a donation.

From Political Wire…

In an e-mail, adviser Joe Trippi wrote: “Today at noon, Hillary Clinton will be hosting a fundraiser in Washington, D.C. for a select group of lobbyists with an interest in homeland security. Tickets for the Clinton fundraiser are $1,000 a ticket and $25,000 per bundler. And for that money you get more than a meal — you get to attend one-hour breakout sessions in four different areas of homeland security that will include House Committee Chairs and members of Congress who sit on the very committees that will be voting on homeland security legislation.”

It is good to see Edwards pointing this out. I am surprised Obama has brought it up either because this is exactly what Obama means when he says we must change the rules of the game. Clinton talks about change, but these antics is exactly what is wrong with Washington right now and it is clear Clinton won’t be changing anything about it.
