"Cucchinelli was his own worst enemy in the campaign. He gave the ammo to the McAuliffe campaign and they used it."

Not at all. It's impossible to get your message out when your campaign is broke and the RNC turns its back.

“Not at all. It's impossible to get your message out when your campaign is broke and the RNC turns its back.”

If your campaign is broke, then your candidacy is flawed. If you are going to thumb your nose at the GOP-e/RNC (and I can understand why Cuccinelli would want to do that) then you have to motivate the Tea Party to step up and write the big checks necessary to counter McAuliffe and the DNC.
