First Ladies Lunching For Obama

You have until 5:00 today to sign up (nefinance@barackobama.com) for a big ol' Obama fundraiser being held at the Fairmont Copley Plaza tomorrow. The "Lunch With The First Ladies"  -- minimum suggested contribution $250 -- is being hosted by Diane Patrick and Angela Menino -- and features quite a few big-dollar co-chairs and co-hosts who were once in the diehard Hillary Clinton camp.

In other news on the local Obama fundraising front.... A $250 contribution will also get you into a debate watch party with Jimmy Tingle tonight in Cambridge. Those with fewer spare shekels can cough up $50 to join a debate watch party tonight with city councilor Mike Ross (OK, he's no Jimmy Tingle, but who is?) at Lir on Boylston Street.
