After irking the media by barring it from tomorrow’s mega-donor shindig in Jerusalem, the Romney campaign has announced that one pool reporter will be permitted to attend the event, after all. No word yet on how reclusive Republican sugar daddy Sheldon Adelson will take the news, but with all that money we’re sure he can afford a pretty convincing disguise.
