Roche should maintain his resolve and start a low-level campaign for the next election right now. Keep his supporters engaged via updates, and make enough headway so that his supporters will make waves if the media tries to ignore him a second time. No candidate is an island.

Any pro-American candidate will have an uphill battle. It's not over until he gives up.
