The Vogue editor's "Runway to win" initiative -- which had famous designers like Tory Burch and Marc Jacobs creating bags, shirts and other gear for the Obama campaign -- brought in a lot more dough than some predicted.
Campaign manager Jim Messina tells Bloomberg Businessweek that the venture, which had been mocked by some pundits, raised "just north of $40 million."

I love the entire line. I bought two of everything for myself and one of everything for all my friends living and dead. You should too. They make great Chris...er holiday gifts.

I’m sure it’s all a front for the corruption scams that demonrats always run. Bubba and Hitlery entered the presidency with about $500K in the bank and somehow came out with a bank balance that rivals a PowerBall winner. More of their cattle futures paying off, I’m sure.

Only thing good about Obama’s 2nd term - four more years of ‘Boob Belt’ fun.
