ruined my image

A person running for a public office: Why did you curse him in public? You just ruined my image which I have established for two years now. I need to call my advisor now to restore/rehabiliate my image.

1. Are there any mistakes?
2. Are both choices possible, restore, rehabilitate?
Thanks.
