Literally... has the best resume of the bunch outside of Cruz.

I would say his votes will shift to more of the better candidates.

Can’t blame him at this point. Accomplishment alone doesn’t get it done anymore. Voters like charisma.

Depending on who wins the nomination, he may be in good for VP spot.

It makes me sad that he wasn't ready for the big stage.
