In almost all cases the candidates held other offices. They simply go back to their old job if it is still there. Several also have college degrees that allow them to work in their degree profession. For example John McCain is a US senator and Sara Palin is the Govenor of Alaska, both still can hold these posts. Some are lawyers, which go back to practicing.

Losing candidates just go on with their lives. Some go back to their old jobs. Some find new jobs. Most of the major candidates get new offers for positions either in government or in business. Some run for office again and some already had an office which they did not resign when they ran or even ran for another office at the same time.
