63. Alot of the leftover money was from the primary
which he couldn't by law use in the general election.

As of the end of October, according to one report I just looked up, he had about 3 million, which wouldn't have been enough for the kind of Gore style recounts they were expecting, but didn't get close enough in any one state to need.

The things that would have flipped the election, like finding evidence of Diebolding, wasn't something that the FEC had approved GELAC for. They approved using GELAC for recounts. That's the only FEC decision I see regarding GELAC and Kerry.

Haven't you ever prepared for something, only to have something else occur that you didn't expect?

As for 12 million being alot of money, well, if Gore and Kerry are any indication, 12 million are about par for the course at the end of a campaign.
