That's fine, but we're talking about the loser here. Does he keep himself viable for a future contest, or does he flame out spectacularly? What would the pragmatist do, treat each skirmish as the entire war, or know when to give and when to take?

Does he keep himself viable for a future contest, or does he flame out spectacularly?

That sir depends entirely on the currently unknown future. He could be the next Churchill, or he could just write it off and go into the private sector.

In either scenario, Clinton or Trump, the bet is that it's a 4 year stint with much controversy. After what has occurred in this election thusfar, I would not blame Ted if he took a partnership in a law firm arguing before the Supreme Court.
