Raised $1,158,091
Cash left $260,939 (as of Sept 30) (relative peanuts - Bernie had $27 mil)

He ran out of money and to continue the publicity stunt was going to cost him.

Lindsey Graham and John Kasich may still have a few bucks (but few votes in the polls). Santorum was in a similar financial position as Jindal and getting no traction so he's probably next.
