Overseas fundraisers

[rob in cal]

I believe Romney held a fundraiser in Israel during his trip there.  Is it common to hold overseas fundraisers? One would think the Obama campaign could use this against him, the idea of Romney specifically going overseas to raise foreign money for the campaign.

He held one in the United Kingdom too.

It's pretty disgusting really, going overseas to attack the president and raise money from foreigners for an American election.

I think these fundraisers were with expats, not foreigners.

I dont think you can accept donations from non-citizens, although they probably can funnel money through some 3rd party groups.

EDIT...here you go....
