Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker denies he's a career politician — even though he's been in elected office since he was 25 years old.

(snip)

GOP front-runner Donald Trump is bragging about his lack of experience in elected office and says career politicians are part of the problem. Trump donated $10,000 to Walker's 2014 re-election campaign for governor.

Sounds like a career politician to me.

He’ll probably change his position by next week. He always does.

Everyone knows you have to be in elected office for 26 years to be considered a career politician.

 

 

 

 

/s... I suppose it is needed for some!

It’s irrelevant. Walker has done good things in Wisconsin. He has potential to do good things at the federal level. His problem, along with Cruz and Carson, is that their message is getting drowned out by Trumpmania. Walker’s campaign also broke the “Reagan” rule: never attack your own. Run on your merits and accomplishments, not backstabbing and undermining candidates with the same goals as you.

Could be Walker chose the wrong campaign advisors, especially if the GOPe recommended them. Or, his worldveiw just might not be in line with what Americans want, I have no idea.

The other candidates are going to have to step up their campaign, and start hitting a broader audience. And, they need to save all of the vitriol for the democrat candidates, and not turn on each other (except JEB!).

Conservatives fall for this divide and conquer bullshit every time, and it’s because the MSM keeps driving the liberal and GOPe narrative, and conservatives get discouraged way too easily.

The leftists in the DNC vote en bloc. Their is no dissent in their ranks.

Getting the right to unify around someone, or anything for that matter, is like trying to herd cats.
