But let's also come out and admit it: There's no way he's getting re-elected. Those people are simply going to vote Republican if anybody gives them anything even vaguely resembling an excuse. There's an argument that he may as well go out in a blaze of glory, but I'm coming around to the argument that if the state ever goes at least a little purple then at least he won't be a radical liberal bogeyman for whoever is running at that time.
