Kerry's donations "SURGE". No other Democratic candidate has ever raised so much money!!! Kerry's Record

Kerry, a 60-year-old U.S. senator from Massachusetts, has increased his fund-raising total by half to at least $61 million in the three weeks following the March 3 withdrawal of his last main rival, North Carolina Senator John Edwards.

No other Democratic presidential candidate has ever raised more than Kerry has. The most money raised through donations by any presidential candidate prior to this year's election cycle was set by Bush in 2000, who collected $94.5 million prior to the Republican National Convention, which began July 29th of that year. After the party conventions, both parties' candidates will receive about $75 million in federal funds for the general campaign that begins after the conventions and ends with the Nov. 2 election.

Kerry ``has got a bunch of fund-raising galas around the country over the next few months, and the ones that were projected to by $500,000 or $1 million are now set to raise $1 million, $2 million or more,'' said John Coale, a trial attorney in Washington who has raised more than $100,000 for Kerry. ``It's coming in very easily now.''
