    The president will hold a six-table dinner at Red Rooster — whose chef, Marcus Samuelsson, prepared Obama’s first White House state gala — March 29 to raise money for the DNC, said Politic.com.

    “He’s got to raise as much money as he can, because he’s in for the fight of his life,” democratic political consultant Hank Sheinkopf said.

    The restaurant is in the district of embattled representative Charlie Rangel, whom Obama irked last summer when he suggested that Rangel should retire. Still, Rangel spokesmen said he expects his boss to attend.
