Yet Another Sign of the Broken Nature of Money in Politics: Mark Warner (D-VA) coming to Los Angeles?!

I got an email this morning that I found odd. Mark Warner, one of the remaining conservadem Senators and one of the few to escape the 2014 bloodbath, is coming to Los Angeles in order to raise money. A lot of money. For the cut rate price of $1,000, I could see one of my least favorite Democratic Senators who has literally no real reason for being here; if I'm feeling opulent, I can spend $5,400 to be a host.
