I'm afraid the knee-jerk responses to Eternal Vigilance's very presence on this forum has caused a good many people to lose perspective.
Would you 'care' if the financial backer/supporter in question was someone who considered terrorists freedom fighters? Perhaps a member of CAIR? Someone who worked, legally, doing something that many many people find morally objectionable?
This exact issue has come up time and time again in the political arena, and time and time again we hear about politicians returning checks, disavowing support from people, claiming ignorance & refusing comment, etc. This is nothing new, and certainly shouldn't be new info to Romney's campaign people.
Your personal attack at the end was tired, even as you claim to be 'grown up.'
It depends on the facts and the person, of course, but generally, no, because I wouldn't support Romney if I thought that attendance at one party with someone whose views we do not share on one issue was going to change him or his convictions.

To the contrary, it is not a personal attack, it is a mature and truthful opinion on his comments to which I am entitled.
