The recent republican advert likening Obama to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears has led to angering William Barron Hilton (co-chair of the Hilton Hotel empire, Paris Hilton's grandfather), furious that the McCain ad drew an unflattering comparison between Obama and his own granddaughter.
It seems that the elder Hilton has donated $18,400 to the McCain campaign, and $35,000 to the National Republican Senatorial Committee in the last couple of years. (Paris’s father, Rick Hilton, has given an additional $6,900 to the McCain campaign. Suffice it to say, he’s none too pleased either.)
