Campaign Finance

Someone asked in comments below, and it seems to be an area where people have some misconceptions, so I figured I'd post about.

As of the moment Kerry accepts the nomination, presumably at the convention, he will no longer be allowed to accept private contributions as he's chosen to accept public money for the general election.

So, yes, if you want to contribute the earlier the better.

After the convention, you can still contribute to the DNC which is allowed to spend some limited amount on Kerry election program related activities, as well as GOTV and other efforts.
