The king is dead. Long live the king.

Ok, so Algore is out and coverage is focusing on the remaining contenders. Just saw Carl Cameron say that because of Kerry's marriage, he has a "family fortune" that can be put into play, eliminate his need to fundraise, avoid FEC limits, etc. (I envision John Heinz just SPINNING in his grave!) .... however, I understood the Heinz fortune was Teresa's, not John's, and therefore, HER money could not legally be spent on HIS campaign.... that she is subject to the same campaign donation limitations as the rest of us.

Any experts on election law out there who can clarify?

Thanks for the clue about what to do with the shells. I'll make some fresh ricotta today and that's what we'll have for supper.

I'm not an expert. But I do have some knowledge.

I believe any monies coming from an joint account are not limited. If Ole' John doesn't have access to a joint account he's gonna have to scrounge and beg like the common folks.

I believe funds from any of HER individual checking accounts would be subject to the normal rules.
