Pictures With Michelle Obama Worth $50

Yet another "sweepstakes" from the Democrats. This time from

DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE "RECEPTION WITH MICHELLE OBAMA"

One winner will receive the following prize package (the "Trip"):
* Two round-trip coach-class airplane tickets from an airport within the continental United States to and from Los Angeles, CA (approximate retail value $1,000) for the reception with Michelle Obama (described below). Sponsor has sole discretion as to the choice of airline, flight times, and other flight logistics and details.
* One night's stay for winner and winner's at a hotel in Los Angeles, CA the night of October 27, 2010 in a double-occupancy room or room of equivalent value (approximate retail value $300). Sponsor has sole discretion as to the choice of hotel and other hotel logistics and details.
* Admission to the Reception with Michelle Obama in Los Angeles, CA and a meeting for winner and winner's guest with First Lady Michelle Obama at the reception on October 27, 2010 (approximate retail value $2,000). Winner will also have the opportunity to have his/her photo taken with the First Lady (approximate retail value $50.00).
Approximate value of Trip package: $3,350.

Contest rules here. At least this time, you can take a guest but unlike the "Win A Date With Obama" Sweepstakes, only one winner instead of three.

Again, my stance is this is a desperate act on the part of the democrats to boost donations and mailing lists.
