Simmons would have lost with under 40% of the vote, probably pushing 30. Nobody wants a lame washed-up defeated congressman with no fundraising power. His campaign would not have generated any sort of excitement or energy. He's a losing loser, and would have lost magnificently. The fact that he performed significantly worse than McMahon in all pre-primary polling tells the entire story. This is just sour grapes on his part. That said, for the NRSC to actively involve themselves in the CA race and endorse Fiorina (then throw most of their disposable millions at her unwinnable race just to prove themselves "right" and to compensate for the fact that she was a self-funder who wouldn't self-fund), was unconscionable.
