Sadly, Walker supports “immigration reform” - code for amnesty.

ONLY Cruz is clear - i.e. “no illegal can apply for citizenship but must return to their homeland to do so”.

"...Tea Party/evangelical wingers"

We're always the "wingers" yet they are the Bi-Polar opposite of the Constitution. Just more Alisnky techniques...

I would think that a man who worked for a sitting president and a leading senator as a close advisor would qualify for the appellation I used. What is your criteria?

I don’t know his positions on most issues, but I have seen him speak twice, at CPAC and I believe at an Americans For Prosperity event.

His big thing was straightening out the Wisconsin budget, for which he took on the Government unions to make long-term structural changes to balance the books, rather than some gimmicky trick to get him through the next election. He had some impressive results to report - balancing the books, returning surpluses to the taxpayers instead of new spending, and significantly reforming labor laws, with big effects on the unions.

The other time he encouraged activism, and shared his experience of campaigning against the odds, and sticking to principles.

I heard him recently being interviewed by a mainstream media babe, trying to zing him with an immigration question, and he seemed to be mostly trying not to get pinned down, but he did not come out like Christie or Jeb Bush with a codling comment.

He avoided stating a position on deportations, which was the question (and sounded like an attempted setup), and instead emphasized border security.

I think that in Wisconsin (except the radical enclave of Madison), even the Democrats are pretty good on the 2nd amendment.

Walker is a regular at conservative venues, unlike Romney. I was so desperate to get rid of Obama, I worked quite a bit for Romney/Ryan. In my opinion, Walker is a solid upgrade for a conservative, compared to Romney, but no one short of Jesus is perfect.

Karl Rove and the establishment RINOs have already told us Jeb Bush is the ONE. I’m sure they will get busy destroying Walker in their good time.

Pay attention to Morris. If he says that a candidate might win you know that the candidate’s chances are a bit less than they appear. If he says the candidate is a sure thing, it is a waste of money to send that candidate any more money. He will shortly become a has-been.

He was the only talking head that publicly said 2010 was going to be a blowout year for the GOP.
FR knew it first of course.

Looks pretty good.

His stance on the 2nd amendment...it isn’t optional!

We can’t send the manual labor work force back across the border. Our underclass will not work for a living when they can sell drugs and pimp whores; why mow grass and pick up trash on the interstates v money for nutting and the Chicks for free!

Get a roof on your house and see who comes over to do it!

At least they are not muslims. Here and working honest jobs stay. Criminals and parasites go home.

I actually like Scott Walker, which is why this disturbs me. Morris’s judgement is the kiss of death.

Who do you think does this kind of work now in Lilly white states like Wisconsin?

You guzzled the CoC Koolaid.

Lilly White? No such thing these days. When I moved out of Iowa in 2002 (another supposed Lilly White state) my side of town was becoming increasingly Hispanic by the day and that was almost 15 years ago. I’ll bet Wisconsin is in a similar situation. They’re increasing their numbers in every state. I lived in a black majority apartment building in Mississippi and most residents were there 24/7 without gainful employment. In my majority Hispanic neighborhood here in Texas, I see people coming and going from jobs and self-employment throughout the day.

Milwaukee has changed a bit since the days of Laverne and Shirley.

All the more reason why we don’t need a open border amnesty type for President.

The toe sucker is notoriously wrong.

Man, that's right. Disappointing to see him say this. I hope he doesn't comment on Cruz.

Your post is BS and typical of GOP-Establishment! Your screen name is not surprising - typical anti-Constitutional socialist.

DEPORT ALL ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS THAT ARE CAPTURED.
Eliminate all benefits to ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS to promote self-deportation.
Build a wall and defend it against all ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS.

...just for starters
