I haven't gotten involved in this because I really don't care about it. I will simply say that I do not think that should Kerry have been elected there would not be such an uproar over any such spending of private money on these events.

There are always better things to spend money on than huge parties.

Really? Then, all the past references (by Repubs) as to Theresa Heinz-Kerry's money were for..? He was roundly slammed by them for having a wealthy wife. I really don't think he would have been as gauche as to thrown such an expensive soiree during such times, but I could be wrong. If he had, I would be doubly critical of him, as I would hold him to much higher standards.
