There is a federal law that if you have PACs/supporters with funds, you are allowed to draw the equivalent of the salary for the office you are running for. (For a senator, that's $174,000, but for a presidential candidate that's $400,000). So, conceivably candidate Graham could earn an additional $226,000 from his pacs and campaign funds by running for president.

I don't know, but this HAS to be an incentive for some of these guys to stay in the race.

I believe he did have a supporter. The question is which other candidate that supporter will now prefer or if she was likely to vote at all.
