Why? It costs a ridiculous amount of money for a credible campaign. If he can't raise money, a candidate has to foot the bill on his own and how many people want to spend $90-100k to run?

It would be nice to not have that issue, but the reality is if you want to run and try to knock off an incumbent you have to do some fundraising. The implication from some is that Chu was dodging this and if its true he had a fundraiser that doesn't appear to be the case.
