HENDERSON, NV.—At a town hall meeting here, Barack Obama is calling for change in how business is done in Washington. Yet later in the day, when he flies to California for a series of fund-raisers and other campaign events, he still refuses to disclose all his fund-raising activities or who is hosting events for him
Last week, after I and some other reporters raised a fuss, the Obama campaign decided to disclose events held in places they deemed “public” and let a pool reporter in to cover. That is laudable. But not enough. For example, today Obama is going to Pacific Palisades–near Los Angeles–for a high dollar elite donor fund-raising event, and the campaign did not deem it worth to put on his “public schedule.”
