A very bad strategy if that continues to 2012.

The strategy itself isn't very good. Many self-funders burn themselves out with advertisements before election day and then see their poll numbers remain stagnant or drop from over saturation (Whitman and McMahon come to mind).

It's just such a shame Campbell and Simmons were thrown under the bus by the NRSC in favor of McMahon and Fiorina. Simmons might have even helped Foley to pull off a win if he had been the nominee considering how wasteful McMahon was with advertising. Heck he might have even helped Republicans pick up a house seat or two he had that distinguished and honorable of a political and military career. Campbell had the possibility of being a bright spot for Republicans too.
