He could have made this a "golden ticket" but blew it in such an unprofessional manner I can't see him redeeming himself politically at that level.
That being said, I believe there is much good he can continue to do in Texas and I recommend that he focuses his efforts at redemption there. He is done at a national level. Sad truth, but he brought this on himself, completely unnecessarily.
I don’t see him having any redemption, even in Texas.
I plan to work as hard at getting him OUT of office, as I did getting him in.
