Gavin – thanks for that link, I stand corrected.
It appears that some of the charge is for access to technology services and thus legit. I am not sure but I will compare the charges tomorrow, it sounds like McCain gives a better deal.

Holden–
No matter which party wins, I feel safe in telling you that there will be no place for ‘regular Americans’ at their party. Those days are long, long past.

Um, Warren, McCain is charging the press as well. This is standard practice. http://blogs.suntimes.com/sweet/2008/10/mccains_paytoplay_election_nig_1.html
Obama is charging slightly more than McCain, but the demand for election-night press access to the Obama event is higher, so that’s simple economics.

Will there be a special area at the party where they will bring in ‘regular Americans’ to bear witness to The One’s (Peace be upon Him) Coronation? I suppose they would have to sign a statement to affirm that they are not in the plumbing profession.

You pay for a fund raiser, unless now the media will just go ahead and fess up and acknowledge their part in his campaign. He should be paying them…
