special interests who want him elected really bad. So he will say anything to get votes. Of course those voting for him are the uneducated to. Walker is finance by the Koch brothers, who are socialists, and really want control of this nation. They intend to destroy our basis rights and run America like President Putin does. Gov. Walker and other GOP candidates are very dangerous for this nation and the people. Of course we have a few Supreme Court Justices that are helping the GOP win over the nation.

His 'power' as governor, just like Christie's, will only work within the border of his state.

and their rights being taken away. Have to wonder what the citizens of those states think when they elect puppet leaders.

I guess one big mass suicide in Wisconsin is what you want. Never mind that people are finally figuring it out and he's down to 36% approval.

Win or lose in the primary (or the general but it won't come to that) I don't think Scott Walker has any endgame in Wisconsin. He's not really from here (Colorado Springs actually) and we were never more than a vehicle to further his Presidential aspirations.

I'm not by any means the only one who thinks this either- plenty of Republicans in our state government have said the same. He's probably headed for a gig as a consultant or Faux commentator, ala Palin and Huckabee.

highly. To them, strength means never changing position, never apologizing, and being aggressive.

My definition of strength and that of fellow DUers is probably different from that, but Trump is giving the right wing conservative base what they want, and the rest of the GOP candidates are behaving like wet noodles (thats my favorite descriptor for them).

Jeb has given 5-6-7 who knows how many now different answers to questions about whether the Iraq war was a good thing, Walker did this about birthright, and meanwhile Trump is being, well, Trump.

Scott Walker is not bright. He is very skilled in the politics of personal resentment and opportunism, but he is not bright.
