Campaigns are expensive.

Anyway, it's up to him to decide.........IF there is any.

... support candidates who are committed to making the New, New Deal this country so desperately need a reality. And I think he'd be doing this whether or not he got the nomination.

Part of making the "New, New Deal" a reality is winning back Congress, electing Democrats with the requisite boldness and vision, and and nominating sane people to SCOTUS.

Of course, I don't have a crystal ball, but if he loses the nomination, I think he'll create something along the lines of DFA (org that grew out of Dean campaign).

Police frustrated with Clinton campaign over unpaid bills

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa (WHO-TV) -- The Clinton campaign says as soon as they receive an invoice, they'll pay the Des Moines Police Department for the services they provided at the Katy Perry concert last October. City Hall provided us a copy of the invoice that has already been sent. The invoice is dated November 19, 2015. The bill is nearly $1,800.

The Marshalltown Police Department is dealing with the same problem. "We have requested reimbursement from the Clinton campaign. We haven`t received that payment yet," said Marshalltown Police Chief Michael Tupper.

Former President Bill Clinton was in Marshalltown on January 15, and he requested and received security assistance from the police. The Marshalltown Police Department has not been paid for the services they provided that day.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton held a much larger campaign event in Marshalltown on January 26. On February 3, Chief Tupper sent a letter to the Clinton campaign, detailing the charges (of both her event and her husband's) and asking to be paid. Tupper says he hasn't received a response, so he sent out another letter today. The bill is nearly $2,700.
