67. Please check it again-- I never said we don't NEED money
I said that we're sending a bad message to our potential supporters by showing that our "unity" is all about $1000-a-plate fundraisers-- especially when the speakers are out there talking about how they'll protect "our interests", and they're all multi-millionaires to boot.

If I was somebody working 55 hours a week for minimum wage, trying to stay current on my rent and keep the wolves from the door, I would have very little sympathy for some party that shows its unity by having a dinner that costs more than I take home each month.
