This one was a real mole within the party. She raised boat loads of cash for the Democratic Party, as long as it favored the same financial malfeasance that Bush and to a very small extent Bill Clinton supported. She was actually a member of the DNC steering committee for years.
Yesterday she came out and endorsed McCain-Palin. Despite the fact that she knows that McCain does NOT support many of the women's issues she always described as her biggest issues. She even went so far as to call Obama an elitist. So the kid who grew up in a poor family is an elitist.

Portfolio labeled her “the flashiest hostess in London.” She’s “mistress” of the Ascott House, the 3,200-acre Rothschild family estate in Buckinghamshire. She’s on the board of Estée Lauder. She’s friends with Tony and Cherie Blair and other big-moneyed Brits, including the utterly corrupt Conrad Black and his wife, Barbara Amiel. She also owns what has been described as “the most beautiful apartment in New York”WELL LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TODAY.
Looks like the Chinese wanted to gobble up a portion of American consumer leverage. Shoving even more cheap Chinese goods (And putting more American workers into poverty) seems to be just up Lady Rothschild's alley.http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601080&sid=aRpTioM9_5MM&refer=asiaBank of China to Acquire 20% of Edmond de Rothschild (Update2)
By Aaron Pan and Fabio Benedetti-Valentini
Sept. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Bank of China Ltd., the nation's third-largest by value, will buy a 20 percent stake in La Compagnie Financiere Edmond De Rothschild for 236 million euros ($342 million) to start an asset-management venture.
Compagnie Financiere Edmond de Rothschild, the French fund- management unit of privately-held bank LCF Rothschild Group, and Beijing-based Bank of China will begin an asset-management and private-banking venture to sell Rothschild's financial products through the 10,800 branches of the Chinese lender, according to a statement released today.
``Chinese banks are performing in a marvelous way in the current maelstrom that is shaking the global finance,'' Compagnie Financiere Edmond de Rothschild Chairman Michel Cicurel said at a press conference in Paris. ``Bank of China is perfectly positioned to accompany China's growing middle class'' as the lender has more than 20 million accounts of individuals with at least $100,000, Cicurel said.
