    Obama Event Organizer Calls Examiner Coverage a “Dick Move”
    Friday August 3rd, 2007 3:13 PM by BHDC Staff  
    Filed under: Examiner, Barack Obama

    The Examiner offered up a less-than-flattering portrayal of the recent Barack Obama-themed date auction and mixer, which took place earlier this week at SPANK nightclub.

    “Looks like crushes don’t quite bring the media-mongering clout they once did, seeing how Wednesday night’s ‘Bid on your Crush for Obama’ date auction party fizzled faster than Fred Thompson’s campaign donations,” wrote Examiner reporter Mike Isaac. ”Where did you go, Obama Girl?”

    Event organizer James McBride tells Bid Head DC that the coverage amounted to a “dick move” and he was surprised to see some facts left out. McBride also shared an e-mail he sent to Isaac, detailing his qualms:

    Considering that one person, not “Generation Obama,” hosted and raised $1,700 by himself via a low-dollar fundraiser….I think you’re portrayal was way off.  I expressed disappointment that it wasn’t bigger, but calling people “brats” who care about changing our country?  What makes someone a brat anyway….because they went to college?

    Anyway, find any other candidate with a similar event that can raise as much via grassroots efforts and no headliner and you will prove to me how unsuccessful last night was.  Thanks for not mentioning the $175 either.

    Anyway, when Generation Obama is launched you will have plenty of impressive things to write about.

    The campaign will officially launch on August 25.
