Lobbyists kick in for Ready for Hillary

K Street is coming out for Hillary Clinton.

Nearly 20 consultants and lobbyists are co-hosting a Ready for Hillary PAC fundraiser Thursday night at Capitol Hill restaurant Johnny’s Half Shell. Hosts and attendees are expected to contribute $2,500 and $1,000, respectively.

Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) is the “special guest” for the event.

Many of the co-hosts for the event played prominent roles in the Bill Clinton administrations or have strong Democratic ties on Capitol Hill.

David Jones, finance committee member of Clinton’s 2008 presidential bid, now at Capitol Counsel, along with veteran Clinton administration loyalists like Harold Ickes and Janice Enright of the Ickes Enright Group and Tim Keating of Boeing are listed as co-hosts of the fundraiser, according to an invite. Susan Brophy of Glover Park Group, Jeff Forbes and Dan Tate Jr. of Forbes-Tate, Brian Griffin of Duberstein Group, Anne Urban of Urban Swirski are also hosting the event.

Ready for Hillary had raised almost $4 million at the end of the year and had $748,000 in its coffers.

The cadre of lobbyists hosting the event is a stark contrast to President Barack Obama’s position on federal lobbyists. Obama railed against the lobbying community during his 2008 presidential bid and has long tried to down play their ties to the Washington influence community.

Oh Boy!!! It's 2012 and the mythical war on women all over again. Will Sandra Fluke be spewing her hypnotic feminazi drivel for her fellow vagina Hillary?

I know most single females don't give a chit about anything but women's issues, but take a look at THIS before you vote in 2016:

HILLARY SET THESE MEN UP TO BE SLAUGHTERED, THEN OBAMA REFUSED TO SAVE THEM.

Nope...this is about hiding a candidate...just like they did with Obama.

All of a sudden, this black, clean and articulate unknown appeared...and Hillary was forced to eat his dust.

I predict she will become ill again...and "someone" will appear.

This is all about rigging elections. The early voting, the dead voting, the double voting.....

Waste of money. She’ll be dead before she’s sworn in from a massive CVA! Or perhaps Roberts will agree to swear her in while she’s comatose. What difference would it make any how?
