BROOKLINE, Mass. (AP) — A former advertising executive who hosted a campaign fundraiser attended by President Barack Obama last night says it raised $2.2 million for Obama's re-election campaign and the Democratic Party.

Obama attended at dinner at the Brookline home of philanthropist Jack Connors.

Tickets for the dinner and an earlier fundraiser in Boston ranged from $200 to the legal maximum of $35,800.

Speaking at a reception for about 900 people at the Cyclorama at the Boston Center for the Arts, Obama mentioned Osama bin Laden, saying he will never again threaten the United States.
