What's next for Ted Haggard?

Advertisements [?]

It looks like the meth use is a given, backed up by the voicemails. But the gay sex isn't backed up by the voicemails. OTOH he *was* getting his meth from a gay escort, which won't sit well with the church elders.

So I'm thinking:

- His resignation becomes permanent (New Life Church can't afford to lose members)
- Wife divorces him (maybe she could forgive an "indiscretion" with a woman, but gay sex? Nope.)

No evangelical group will touch him. No GOP group will want to be associated with him. No radio shows or TV shows for Ted.

Just another has-been like Jim Bakker?
