Collector of Revenue Gregory F.X. Daly is known for his sharp dress and smooth style, and tonight for only $500 you too can be a Cool Cat like F.X. himself.
Daly is hosting a jazz-themed fundraiser tonight Steinberg Rink in Forest Park. Those who contribute $50 can call themselves "Hipsters"; $250 get you to the "Daddy-O" stage; and real players can skip the $500 "Cool Cat" level and jump right to "18 Karat" heights for a mere $1,275.
The shindig begins at 5:30 and ends at 7:30, which seems pretty early for hipsters and Daddy-Os.

Sorry, I am not sure a real hipster would be seen at an FX fund raiser, even though he does have some pretty nice suits.
But why does he need cash anyway. I mean everyone wants cheese, but is he expecting a challenger soon? Or is he raising money so he can give money to other candidates?

Obviously doug duckworth, you don't know any "real hipsters"

This is talking about the real hipsters of the past which have been described as “...with a middle-class background (who) attempt to put down their whiteness and adopt what they believe is the carefree, spontaneous, cool lifestyle of Negro hipsters: their manner of speaking and language, their use of milder narcotics, their appreciation of jazz and the blues, and their supposed concern with the good orgasm."
They wouldn't be caught dead at a political fundraiser. These terms are about as entertaining as French's video of Karl Rove rapping. It is a bad attempt to appear cool.
