11. Scott Walker?

I think Trump is too extreme and talks in so many platitudes that potential voters will eventually see through him. (Though I've been wrong before -- didn't think a whole lot of people would vote for W in 2004 either.)

Scott Walker has the backing of Koch money. Thom Hartmann says he's "very concerned about (Republican presidential hopeful) Scott Walker because he has the mentality of Richard Nixon and the agenda of Ronald Reagan."
