Campaigning as an "outsider" is considered an argument that said candidate will be able to bring some sort of new perspective into the way the government is run. This appeals to people since Congress is generally seen in a negative light, so campaigning as an "insider" might backfire because the candidate's opponent might try to tie them (rightfully or wrongfully) to problems such as Congressional gridlock- people might end up seeing the candidate as a face to blame for issues like that considering they tend to like their own Congressman/woman.
