Cheney Hosts Reception for Big GOP Donors

Cheney’s hospitality was a prelude to tonight’s Presidential Gala, a black-tie dinner that is expected to raise at least $15 million for the Republican National Committee and will mark President Bush’s post-inaugural debut as a major fund-raising draw for his party.
