Seems that the New York Times' research-intensive scoop today on the failure of both presidential candidates to disclose their new top-secret "bundlers" has borne fruit.
The Obama campaign has just released a list of its fresh bundlers, people who promise to raise at least $250,000 for the campaign from family and friends. And as you'd expect, the bundlers are more VIP than the average guy donating $20 over the internet.
But who knew Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of US Vogue who received an OBE last month, was an Obama girl? Also, Carrie Bradshaw now has at least one thing in common with the Democratic presidential nominee: Vogue fashion editor Andre Leon Talley thinks they're both fabulous. He's a new Obama bundler as well.
Other Obama fundraisers of note include Ayelet Waldman, the author married to Pulitzer prize-winning scribe Michael Chabon, and Mike Medavoy, the producer of iconic films such as Rocky and Annie Hall.
