Romney to Hold Fundraiser in Pentagon City

by Katie Pyzyk

Pentagon City will likely be buzzing with extra security tomorrow evening, because Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will be holding a fundraiser there.

The event at the Pentagon City Ritz Carlton is scheduled to begin at 5:00 p.m. with a VIP photo reception. Following that, several roundtable meetings will take place on topics central to Romney’s campaign, including tax reform policy and global competitiveness. There will be a general reception afterward.

The former Massachusetts governor’s event packs a hefty price tag. It’s $2,500 to attend just the general reception, and $10,000 to be a part of the photo reception. Those who want to join in the roundtable talks have to raise $10,000 in primary funds, $20,000 in general funds, or donate $10,000.

1. Ugh.

I'm amazed at the price tag.

No actually I am not. That said think about it: he'll say exactly what you want him to say for the right amount of money.

I wasn't aware there was a Ritz Carlton in Pentagon City. Guess Crystal city is slummin for him?

ETA: I wish he would go to Crystal city, I'm sure Freddies would LOVE him.

We could tell him about Crystal city restaurant... NOT to be confused with the amazing sports pub.

2. A mall and the Pentagon. What a perfect venue for him. nt
