Washington, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – The Grand Old Party (GOP) is leaving no stone unturned in its bid to gain full control of both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, not to mention the White House come 2016.
The Republic National Committee (RNC) is holding the biggest and most ambitious political fundraiser ever in the history of the U.S. It will be held at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. and will showcase the Three Tenors.
Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti in concert?
No. Ted Cruz, Chris Christie and Mitch McConnell. Tenors and Republicans all. Unknown to many, the three GOP leaders have had extensive training at the Juilliard School of Music in New York City. All have agreed to join their voices together to raise campaign funds for both the 2014 and 2016 elections.
Each ticket costs $32,400, the maximum political contribution allowed by law from individuals and political action committees (PAC). Assuming that the concert will play to a full house at the Kennedy Center, the GOP is expected to raise a total of almost $80 Million. The concert hall as a capacity of 2,462.
The Adobo Chronicles has learned that the GOP tenors will be performing a repertoire consisting of songs from some of the world’s greatest operas like La Boheme, Rigoletto and Carmen. They will also sing songs from Broadway shows like The Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables.
The two-hour concert will be directed by Metropolitan Opera’s Music Director James Levine.
The Democratic National Committee refused to comment on the GOP fundraiser, saying that “we’ll do what we do best, that is, using social media.”
