Salsa and Politics….a good mix?

Salsa and Politics – Is this a good mix?



So today I got this in my inbox:



Salsa Lovers For Kerry-Edwards Fundraiser at H2O Tue. Oct 26
Eddie Moore & Eileen Torres host the “Salsa Lovers for Kerry-Edwards” Fundraiser Tuesday, October 26 from 7:30-midnight at H2O-800 Water St. SW, Wash. DC 20024. Music is provided by the top salsa DJs in our area. Minimum donation is $10 with a goal of raising $5,000. Please demonstrate your financial support and lend your energy to this crucially important effort. Further details Monday.



Now is it me or are the elections just another marketing opportunity like Halloween, etc.? Where is the SALSA LOVERS FOR BUSH-CHENNEY? Will this be held at some other club?



I’d be interested to hear how the $5,000 is going to be contributed.



My personal view is that Salsa and Politics should not be mixed. A more appropriate promotion would have been Salsa Lovers for Voting, where voting in the elections is promoted rather than any political party. (just my thoughts)



Let’s see how that event folds out.
