WASHINGTON -- Democratic presidential rivals Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton can agree on on

e thing -- they want their party to have more money, no matter who is the nominee.

The Democratic National Committee announced Wednesday that it had signed agreements with both campaigns to begin raising money together.

As part of the unusual pact, donors can contribute up to US$33,100 (euro21,400) to the newly created Democratic White House Victory Fund. The money would benefit whichever candidate becomes the nominee.
