Elisabeth Murdoch believes in Barack Obama

By SDH Elisabeth (Liz) Murdoch is letting knows who she wants to be the next President of the great U.S. of A and she is throwing a fund raiser all the way across the Atlantic to help to make sure it happens. Not following in daddy Rupert Murdoch's footsteps when it comes to politics, Elisabeth is throwing a snazzy fundraiser for Barack Obama while Rupe donated $2,300 to Hillary Clinton's campaign fund last year. Will Daddy and daughter go head to head with their picks? Then again maybe Liz isn't worried about that at all as many believe the race for the Democratic nomination is already over. In the most high-profile example yet of glitzy fundraising bashes for the US presidential hopefuls spreading across the Atlantic, a string of notable US ex-pats with jobs in media, the arts and finance will gather at the Notting Hill home Murdoch shares with her husband, PR guru Matthew Freud.
