I didn't understand Kerry's decision here, either; from the article --

...You also still find intense anger over unexpected things, like the nearly $11 million Kerry had left in his campaign account after—yes, after—election day, which even some of his top aides had no idea was there. The news shocked party insiders. “People were livid,” says one Democrat who has close relationships with large party donors, because that money could have been used to buy a few more campaign ads and phone banks or gone to cash-starved Democrat House and Senate candidates....

The unspent $11 Mill. is fascinating--it fits in well with my conspiracy theories about the "Vietnam hero".

(I thought he was brought home early from Vietnam to spy on the anti-war movement, fwiw.)

$11 million was North Korea's unused portion.
