            <title>Lobbyist Gets DCCC Invitation To Obama Dinner</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p></p>
<p><u>UPDATE: May 29 10:30 a.m.</u></p>
<p>We received the following e-mail response from <strong>Ryan Rudominer</strong>, national press secretary for the DCCC: "You don't need to contribute to win the contest. We are not accepting money from lobbyists for this fundraiser." </p>
<p>(Click on the invitation below to see the contest he refers to.)</p>
<p>The Democratic lobbyist who received the invitation/solicitation and told us about it had this to say: "They know damn well that this is Hillary's old mailing list, which includes every DEM lobbyist in the entire freakin' world who gave her money."</p>
<p>________________________________________________</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>Here is the original post:</strong>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Oops! Someone at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee forgot to scrub a very important, and sensitive, e-mail/donor list. </p>
<p>You see, at least one lobbyist (who contacted us) -- and no doubt many others -- received an invitation from the DCCC and <strong>James Carville </strong>to make a contribution to the committee for a June 18 fundraising dinner in Washington that will include <strong>President Obama</strong>.</p>
<p>See invitation here:&nbsp; </p>
<span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-file" style="display: inline;"><a href="http://undertheinfluence.nationaljournal.com/Dinner%20with%20President%20Obama.pdf"><strong>Dinner with President Obama.pdf</strong></a></span>
<p>The president has instructed the DCCC (and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee) they are not to&nbsp;solicit contributions from lobbyists and political action committees for these types of events. </p>
<p>But the Carville-DCCC invitation was sent to members of HillaryClinton.com's online community. <strong>Hillary Clinton </strong>had no prohibition on taking K Street-connected money when she was running against Obama for the Democratic nomination.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <em><br /></em></p>]]></description>
