Burn Notice:

While Fiorina, Kaisch, and Sanders are each running pretty lean operations - where they’re raising money and spending less, nearly all the GOPers are running deficits - spending more than they’re taking in. So much fiscal responsibility in so few candidates. Even Trump spent more than he took in.

Oh, and Sanders and Clinton each took in more than any of the GOPers, but Clinton’s burn rate was far higher than Sanders - 86% versus 43% for Sanders. That means that Sanders has more money on hand, which could pose an issue for Hillary down the road.

Then again, money looks to be a problem for nearly every GOPer. For instance, Paul raised $2.5 millon, but spend $4.5 million. Huckabee raised $1.2 million, but spent $1.3 million.

Walker, who left the race, actually ended up spending less than he took in - by about a million. If he was in disarray with that situation, you have to wonder how so many of those GOP campaigns are still operating.
