For example, if you are for the Tea Party, and are a Republican, by approving of both the TP and mainstream candidate (who is presumably more towards the center), you are going to disadvantage your preferred candidate.
Also, there's a reason to whittle down a field of candidates via a primary or other system: it is hard, almost impossible maybe, to take the time to realistically research a field of 10 candidates. Debates with this large a field give everyone just a minute or two, or if more, very few questions, and no real debate is possible.
Perhaps the best compromise would be to use approval voting for primaries, where you select the top 5, and then ranked voting/instant runoff to do the final selection.
