Hillary Clinton campaign is getting a dose of some much needed cash tonight thanks to Elton John, who is performing on her behalf at Radio City Music Hall in New York tonight.

TPM Election Central is reporting that Clinton will get $2.5 million in donations. Her rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Barack Obama, raised $40 million last month, which was double her total. He raised about $21 million than she did in February.
