White House strategist Karl Rove helped Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele raise $75,000 Tuesday night at a Capitol Hill event picketed by demonstrators angry over Rove's possible role in releasing a covert CIA officer's identity to the press.

About 65 people showed up at the event at the headquarters of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. The fundraiser was closed to the media.

Ticket prices were set at $1,000 for an individual and $2,000 for a political action committee. A copy of the invitation, obtained by the Maryland Democratic Party, listed the lead hostess as Sen. Elizabeth Dole, R-N.C., along with several prominent national Republican fundraisers. <snip>

"No one who would choose Karl Rove as a friend is fit to serve in the U.S. Senate," Hucker said. <snip>
