...The private event followed a San Francisco fundraising luncheon held in the Bently Reserve in the city's Financial District, which itself was followed by a more exclusive fundraiser -- with only about 10 or 20 donors -- at the same site.

Tickets to Wednesday's luncheon cost $2,500 per person, or $5,000 for admission to both the luncheon and a photo reception; $7,500 got a couple into both events, while $10,000 got all that plus a pre-reception clutch with Biden. Or, donors were encouraged to pony up $10,000 now for a package that got them not only this luncheon but also one with First Lady Michelle Obama in March and a third event with President Barack Obama sometime within the first quarter as well.

The first $5,000 from each donor goes to the Obama Victory Fund 2012 -- $2,500 each for the primary and general elections -- and anything above that goes to the Democratic National Committee.

The main event raised somewhere between $275,000 and $1.1 million; the campaign declined to give a more specific number.

This is good right?
They weren't giving enough before, that's why SOPA got started.
Now that they are coughing up the cash, hopefully we will get a more balanced approached to deciding how profits can be legitimately earned on the internet.
