‘Gold Elephant’

By Josh Sweigart | Thursday, April 10, 2008, 12:00 PM

I recently got my invite to the 2008 Lincoln Day dinner.

The Butler County Republican Party’s centerpiece fund-raiser isn’t cheap; $25,000 for a table of 16 and hole sponsor at the golf outing, $500 for a “Gold Elephant” reception and dinner for two; but it’s always well attended.

And with this year’s topic being “The Presidential Campaign,” rumors are circulating that local GOPers are trying to score Arizona Sen. John McCain, the Republican Party’s nominee for U.S. president, as keynote speaker.

Did they succeed? Butler County GOP officials won’t confirm or deny, but they did entitle the event: “An Evening of Presidential Politics, Star Power, and Unity.”

Cocktail reception starts at 5:30 pm at the Savannah Center, 5533 Chappell Crossing Boulevard, West Chester.

If the invitation applies to him, McCain will have to RSVP by May 1.
