Its says something about Sanders' campaign that he can outspend Clinton 3:1 and still lose.

I for one have and will continue to enjoy watching Sanders getting defeated over and over again despite massively outspending Clinton.  So, I'm not particularly bothered by him staying in.

It really just goes to show that money has its limits.  Jeb Bush's 100 million dollar Superpac couldn't save his campaign because of fundamental flaws with the candidate and the messaging.

Similarly, Sanders still loses states like Massachusetts and Missouri despite outspending her 2:1 or 3:1.  It's not because money is worthless (after all, the spending definitely has buoyed his campaign), it's just that his appeal as a candidate is limited in a way that no amount of money can overcome.
