Chatwal's mega fundraiser for Hillary

June 25, 2007
Before she came to the podium at approximately 9.30 pm, more than 400 guests, the majority of whom had paid $2,300 apiece and were on the VIP list, stood for nearly three hours in the Empire Ballroom of the hotel, sweating and mopping their brows for a photo opportunity with Clinton, who arrived late after being stuck in traffic on the Long Island Expressway.

But she was extremely gracious and although her handlers were trying to keep the flow of people moving at a quick pace, she did take a couple of minutes in conversation with people who engaged her in some dialogue even as they wished her the best on her campaign while having their photographs snapped with her.
