He believes he is some kind of historicle political figure because he lead the first Republican house in like 40 years and the contract with America. The truth is, he has so much baggage with the wives and the ethics problem that the notion of him winning a national election is absurd. His ego won't let him realise that.
If he gets out before the convention, it will be only after total humiliation. He will be bitter and blame his demise on anything but himself.
I think it started out as the money thing, but once he caught fire, his ego took over.
