She CANNOT give Kerry any money for his campaign. It is against the law. She can LOAN the money to the campaign.

"She can LOAN the money to the campaign."
I don't know about that. I don't think that is true.
For instance, Kerry was only able to raise the $6 million loan (or whatever it was) based on his "share" of their house on Beacon Hill.
It could get very dicey if Teresa tries to slip him money. Frankly, I'd love to see her try.

From the New York Times:
"Mr. Kerry can tap only assets that he owns or a portion of those he holds jointly with his wife. He is prohibited from using her money directly for his campaign, though she could contribute the maximum $2,000 like any other donor. Ms. Kerry has also maintained that she can make so-called independent expenditures for such things as advertising supporting his candidacy, though she would be prevented from coordinating with Mr. Kerry or his campaign. Some campaign finance experts have said such an arrangement would present thorny legal problems, to say nothing of public perception."
