his burn rate was 30% which caused his8e campaign to cut th budget by 50% or almost 50%. his chief operating officer just had to step down, i believe, because of costs. he has less cash on hand than candidates like marco rubio, ted cruz and ben carson and the biggest problem for him was that exchange with marco rubio and his ability to shut down the moderator's attack on his voting record. >> there's no debating that. isn't it also true that all losing candidates, it's just true, all losing candidates are bad candidates. it's never really about the candidates. it's about what the electorate wants. maybe it's just not their year. >> it was a base of good candidates, good options that he isn't the only one that experienced and i think that matters.
