This post is misleading at best. If the poster wants credibility, they should at least point out that these comments are a year and a half old. As for the substance, it’s somewhat disturbing, but I don’t see him wholeheartedly endorsing a comprehensive reform bill, he just leaves the door open for the possibility of a guest worker program at some point — presumably after stringent border security requirements are met.

I don’t like that position, but I believe he’s backed off quite a bit lately and said essentially we can do NOTHING until we properly secure the border. This puts him no worse than most other candidates on this issue — save Ted Cruz and a couple others.

I think though that you have to look at the guy’s overall record. He has a record of getting results in WI even in the face of the most fierce opposition. I would say he’s with us on 95% of the issues and I would definitely support him without reservation in the general.

That said, I would rather have Ted Cruz and I need to know a little more about Dr. Carson but he sounds pretty good too. Aside from Cruz, Carson and Walker, I see no other candidate I could get enthusiastic about.

“This post is misleading at best”

Recent experience is causing me to question whether of not Cruz posters here on FR are representative of the Cruz campaign.

I know I’ve developed a sudden and huge distrust as a result of their behavior.
