Making the wrong decision in Kansas City politics can be a costly mistake.
Thankfully, some rather KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS were able to give us a bit of insight into Mayor Sly's latest Kansas City fundraiser.
To wit . . .
KANSAS CITY POLITICAL DENIZENS NOW HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO "SUPPORT THE MAYOR" AT PRICES RANGING FROM $1,000 TO $3,000!!!
An AWESOME AND WELL-INFORMED TKC TIPSTER describes the event this way . . .
"It's called a "make right" or "Mea culpa" fundraiser. Politicians regularly have these after they win in order to give everyone an opportunity to apologize for supporting the opposition by writing a BIG CHECK. For people who supported the other side, this is their best chance to get back in Sly's good graces at the outset of his term."
Honorary hosts and Former Mayors Charles Wheeler, Richard Berkley, Emanuel Cleaver II and Kay Barnes will be there to party with Mayor Sly . . . Congressman Cleaver supported Sly on the down low and the other three were proponents of Mike Burke . . .
But that's okay because the event hosts are former Mayoral Candidates Mike Burke, Deb Hermann and Jim Rowland . . . Obviously, they want to play nice and this PRICEY Party is a great place to start.
SERIOUSLY, MAYOR SLY JAMES STARTED OUT WITH THE FOLKSY STARLIGHT $10 PICNIC BUT THIS FUNDRAISER IS MORE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE KANSAS CITY POWER PLAYERS WHO MUST NOW BANKROLL THIS TOWN'S MOST BELOVED POLITICO!!!
TAKE A LOOK AT THE FULL INVITE FOR YOURSELF.
Congratulations to those of you who can afford $1-3k in order to apologize to the Mayor for supporting the wrong guy . . .
The Boulevard Brewery location on June 23rd starting at 5:30 PM isn't as swanky as I would have hoped but I'm sure the First Class brew should make cutting that kind of check a bit easier to swallow.
Obviously, this kind of thing is above my pay grade but I'm happy to EXCLUSIVELY inform Kansas City power players of the first chance to pay tribute to the new Mayor.
You're welcome.
