Kerry Almost Doubles Bush's Recount Funds

WASHINGTON, November 1, 2004 — Sen. John F. Kerry may have a $24.8 million advantage over President George W. Bush in pursuing any recounts that result from Tuesday's election, according to the campaigns' most recent financial filings.

Under Federal Election Commission rules, both candidates are allowed to use remaining funds from their primary election committees to conduct recount activities, which in Kerry's case amounts to just under $45 million. That compares to just more than $16 million left over in the Bush/Cheney primary election committee's coffers.

3. It was me...

Every time I get an e-mail from Michael Moore that makes me cry, then laugh, then cry again, I kick in another $25.

So what if my kids are eating expired bread; toast it up and it all tastes the same.

Bush blew his wad over the summer, as I read it a few days back. The Dems had more of a crescendo plan. Heh.
