And to further complicate things the Torch may not want to give his campaign money to Lautenburg,who does not like Torrecelli..

Actually, Toricelli is forbidden to give his campaign dollars to another candidate. The most he could legally give to Lautenberg or anyone else is $1000. The only thing the Torch could do is give all of his money to the national party, but even then, he's not allowed to "earmark" the money for the New Jersey Senate race, as other large-donation donors do.

The pundits say Toricelli has about 6 million in his campaign war chest.

Giving 6 million to the to the national party will allow all or a part of it to flow to Lautenberg.

If the Torch really dislikes Lautenberg like they say he does. And Toricelli has called Lautenberg "no balls" in the past, Toricelli may just hold onto his campaign money. - Tom
