80. People flew into Wyoming for the fundraiser???
Where'd they come from if not Wyoming?? Jackson Hole has a fair number of liberals and wealthy ones at that.

Trauner says "I wanted their financial support, but I also wanted them to know that I am not going to agree with Howard Dean or a someone from Massachusetts on everything. I am a pro-business, pro-gun Democrat." That's my point, rural Dems think there's a difference between them and someone from Massachusetts when Kerry was probably right where Trauner is on business and guns. He knows he has to "get people past the label" so why is it that so many at DU are completely tone deaf to this when it's what these folks are saying themselves. Until that 'label' is broken down, people like Trauner have no choice but to distance themselves from "massachusetts" national party politics. At the same time, they need to educate themselves and help the process along which they aren't doing either.
