What do you suppose they are selling off, to warrant such massive contributions?

They're selling *US*. Our rights. Our property. Our futures. Our lives. 

Few Witnesses to Obama, Romney as They Raise $1.5 Billion

By Kate Andersen Brower and Julie Bykowicz - May 22, 2012

Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are on track to raise more than $1.5 billion to finance their presidential campaigns, and only an elite segment of the electorate will see them do it: their own donors.

At an Obama fundraiser in February, reporters waited in a damp garage for more than an hour before being ushered into the Seattle-area mansion owned by Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) Chairman Jeff Brotman and his wife. They stayed inside for just a few minutes -- barely enough time to scan the great room, which featured floor-to-ceiling windows and a super-sized fireplace, and spot Microsoft Corp. co-founder Bill Gates among the 65 guests.
