        Among the possibilities: Nominee for US Attorney in SC, nominee for the 4th Circuit, a role at DOJ (or in the FBI), or (the womp womp-est possibility for him, given his statement) a law firm?

        Gotta believe Benghazi along is worth a lifetime judicial payoff. And he needs to jump now while the GOP still has a narrow majority.

        Man, that's even more horrifying than @ggreeneva's speculation.

        I would be shocked. Wray's picks so far have been very reasonable. And FBI likely would balk.

        Yeah, judgeship seems more plausible, thinking about it. For life.

        FWIW, at times, when the cameras aren't on him, Gowdy can appear to be an intelligent and reasonable man.
