Crenshaw is filth. He's an ethical weathervane. Periodically he'll do something that resembles a príncipled act or statement and then he'll promptly ruin it.

He's a slightly starchier Lindsey Graham.

He and Mace together don’t equal a “three eyed raven” - but in the current republican caucus they really are part of the ‘deep thinkers’ caucus - which is a very small group

Yeah, I had high hopes for him initially, and he does occasionally appear to show some ethical backbone, but you're right: he always ruins it.

Showing ethical backbone is more than a here or there in an elected official.

No, there was some fracas with him early on, and he went on Saturday Night Live and gave a reasonable speech, IIRC. Seemed like he might be legit. Alas, 'twas not to be.
