Roy:

Do you have any data as to how many challengers have actually mortgaged their 
million-dollar homes in order to throw that money into their campaigns for 
federal office?  While your pro-incumbent point is generally well-taken, this 
particular example strikes me as fairly fanciful based on my admittedly limited 
experience.
