Walker’s right. It’s a big tent and it’s stupid to shoot ourselves in the foot. We’re a minority.

Walker and you sound more like GOP-E supporters than Tea-Party members.

No, Walker is wrong!

Like John Adams stated below, the Tea-Party was trying to remove those that did not have the proper principles, Scott Walker took the side of the GOP-E in that fight, WRONG MOVE!!
"It is not only most prudent then, but absolutely necessary…to give the people a legal, constitutional, and peaceable mode of changing [their] rulers, whenever they discover improper principles or dispositions in them. - John Adams

Walker thinks Christie and Jeb are okay and Cruz, Rand and Lee are weak candidates.

Walker didn’t specifically say swing districts. He is just concerned with the number of R’s.

Half the new Congress members voted for amnesty. What difference does it make if Boehner has 240 or 250 members. It’s worse now as he needs less conservative support.

Walker hasn’t spoken out of Jeb or Christie being big government RINOs.

Walker said Cruz, Lee and Rand are unelectable so pick one of the governors. He didn’t even say it had to be conservative.

Conservative firebrand Glenn Grothman narrowly won a primary and whoever won the primary was beating the Dem by 12-20 points. Grothman didn’t have kind words for the retiring congressman.

In SC, Lindsey Graham won by 15 points and conservative Tim Scott won by 20 points.

Does Walker think the Tea Party candidate was going to be more crazy than Graham?

“Walker’s right. It’s a big tent and it’s stupid to shoot ourselves in the foot. We’re a minority.”

RINOs are worse than democrats because they obfuscate what conservatism is. I believe the founding fathers were in a minority at one time, with many afraid to make the British mad and upset whatever they were gaining from them. But since the benefits were much less back then, many switched. Sadly, the liberals of both parties are gaining financially from milking this country.
