Romney's return is due in good measure to the success of three previous fundraisers. He last raised

Orange County's Republican las vegas hotel and casinos money tree continues its allure, with Mitt Romney on Monday returning for his fourth las vegas hotel and casinos fundraiser since March. It's being billed as his last California event before the election, as he'll likely be sticking within swing-state lines after leaving.
The event, to be held at Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa, is expected to draw more than 1,000 supporters, said Scott Baugh , chairman of the Republican Party of Orange County. That would make it Romney's largest event of the year here.
For those who step up from the $1,000 starting price to $2,500, you'll be rewarded with a genuine Romney lapel pin. Bump it up to $10,000 and you get two tickets to the photo reception, a photo and two tickets to the general reception.
