In Connecticut, Republican Rob Simmons stopped actively campaigning for the Senate seat, and essentially conceded the race to Linda McMahon.

And then he really surged in momentum:

He’s picked up 6 points in a new poll. Ann Coulter is openly pining for him. To get this attention, all Rob Simmons had to do to was quit campaigning for the U.S. Senate.
“This is marvelous,” Simmons said Thursday night. “Maybe if I took a long trip to China, I might move out front. I think there is a lot to say about not bothering the voters.”
Simmons said he is enjoying the attention that escaped him while he was an active candidate, but not so much that he is tempted to reactivate his campaign for the Republican nomination.
“I’ve had numerous people call, not just today or yesterday, but over the last week. I am flattered,” Simmons said. “But my position remains the same. Yes, I am on the ballot. No, I am not actively campaigning.”

Hey, Alvin Greene used this approach and got 60 percent. The election isn’t until August 10. At this pace, he can make it; the question is whether his campaign can sustain enough lack of effort.
