Kerry's funds

[Merusault]

How is Kerry's fundraising going? Do you think he would be able to sustain a strong campaign against Bush without dipping too much into he and wife's money?

[frank frankly]

1. if he gets the nomination, the money will come flying in

that is for sure.

it won't be a problem at all.

2. His wife is just another voter $2000 limit to Kerry

Kerry's fund raising was hurting but Iowa is going to really boost him and a good finish in NH will turn on the money machine.

4. Up 40% since December

Money and support are streaming in. Last week, as polls showed Kerry gaining, the amount of campaign contributions increased by 40% over the average for December. Only 38 out-of-state volunteers were here late last month. More than 1,000 had arrived by Sunday, double the number the campaign expected

5. He can't touch his wife's money

He has money of his own and plenty of it. That's the only money he can tap though. I suspect the money will come in quickly now.
