Ok there. Devore’s campaign failed because he didn't connect, couldn't raise enough money and did not get his campaign off the ground floor.

Go check the numbers.

Excluding amounts given to the campaigns by the candidates themselves, Tom and Chuck both outraised Carly.

Campbell raised $2.6 million, DeVore $2.4 million, and Carly $7.4 million. Subtract out Carly's $5.5 million she gave her own campaign and she "raised" less than either Tom or Chuck. Elections should not be reduced to which millionaires can spend the most money to blast their untruthful campaign slogans across the airwaves.

Her $5.5 million

another reason why Devore lost and Carly won. Devore was poor. I'm sure you will blame capitalism next for is defeat. You already blamed Palin and Bush. you might as well make it a trifecta.
