Mitt Romney and President Obama have two entirely different fund-raising styles that perfectly reflect their political personae. Mitt Romney seems to specialize in $50,000-a-plate fundraisers, while President Obama welcomes donations of as little as $5. Obama also keeps advertising the fact that they'll draw a name from everyone who makes a donation during a specific period of time, and you can win a chance to have dinner with the President.
Can anyone imagine Romney doing something like that?
I can actually imagine Romney's reaction to someone in his camp telling him he should try some fund-raising where he'll have dinner with someone who donates as little as $5.00. "What? You mean eat? With one of the little people? God, WHY?!?"
President Obama should stick to caring about, standing up for and directing fundraising efforts to the people who can only afford to give $5 or $10 at a time. Governor Romney should stick to rubbing elbows, fighting for and fundraising from the rich and the "elite". When November 6th comes around, we'll get a chance to see which type of people outnumber the other.
