Absolutely. And there are two things to note about this too.
1. This was the best political move he could make under the circumstances. Any political strategist from either party who was worth their paycheck would have advised him to do this.
2. By the time the allegations became public enough for him to be called on it, money was not issue for him and so giving this money up was not really a big deal. I can't help but wonder what he would have done if money had been tight at the time. Fortunately for him, he did not have to make the hard choice here so we will never know.
