TRENTON, NJ - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama will be in New Jersey on Friday for a fundraiser at the home of one of New Jersey's biggest celebrities.

But the event at Jon Bon Jovi's Jersey Shore home is just one of two fundraisers being held for Obama on Friday. The other is at the home of Democratic National Committee Chairman Philip Murphy.

Tickets for the Murphy event will be $2,300 a person. The price jumps to $30,800 per person for the event at Bon Jovi's home.

The money from both events is slated to go a joint fundraising committee run by the Democratic National Committee and the Obama campaign. Bon Jovi has a history of supporting Democratic politicians.

I know a contractor who did work for Bon Jovi, in his NJ home. While his wife was nice, Bon Jovi is a ass. He wouldn't let the “little people” use his bathroom, they had to go down to the pool house to use that bathroom.

What an elitist jerk!

Doesn’t that just make you want to scream??!!

I would never, ever want the perception to have empathy for that mindset.

Oh well, there goes his 3 fans. He might even take the two Cinderella fans as well. John McCain needs to focus on the Europe fans if he has any hope of getting any of the 10 people who still listen to Hair Metal to vote for him.
