that's a really bad headline, but that's what the post says:

Here's the sad paragraph:
Sources said Kerry was close to running out of money to finance his campaign. After getting off to a fast start, raising more than $7 million in the first quarter of 2003, sources said he is likely to raise between $1 million and $2 million in the final three months of the year, just when demands for travel, staff and television advertising are escalating rapidly.
Yikes. $2 mil?? what's the point of opting out if you are running out of $$?? Does he plan to break the spending limits in NH?? doesn't look like he even has the funds to do that. It is disturbing how much i am enjoying his demise....
