Walker has two sons who resemble him closely. This could be a conservative family dynasty to finally replace the Bushes.

Early in his show yesterday, Rush mentioned this debate [linked below] between WI Gov. Scott Walker and the Mayor of Milwaukee, WI [who was challenging Walker in a recall election after he "broke" union hold on the state].

It's an hour but by watching it ALL you will have a good idea how Walker is going to campaign and interact with the media and critics.

Wisconsin Gubernatorial Final Recall Debate - 5/31/2012

The results Map:

Wisconsin governor recall election — Scott Walker vs. Tom Barrett"

As I told a Freeper who sent me a comment last night that she'd watched this debate too:

"Glad you watched the debate - it WAS interesting.

I’d start levitating at the “toad Barret [her apt discriptor],” but Walker would sit calmly and then very unemotionally run Barret through. Over and over and over again. I finally relaxed and enjoyed the show."

He’s taken the worse the left could throw at him, and won.

the cult of Walker

When we like somebody it's a cult.

But when they accept everything obama says without criticism, that's what? Just normal journalism?

... We are talking strong levels of support [for Walker] in regions that went against both Bushes, Dole, McCain, and Romney...

This alone is a significant reason to pick Walker as the GOP candidate. He beats RINOs

It is fun to watch Walker make fools of those who try to trip him up!

Thanks for posting this, I read it yesterday and thought it was a very good piece. I wanted to post it myself, but I couldn’t at that time.

GO WALKER!

Democrats were lulled into a sense of confidence as 2011 drew to a close, when polls showed Walker losing in just such a stunt. Labor unions, public employee unions, college students, and progressives not living in Madison were united and determined.

There is one public sector union that is down 70% in membership, and the fat lady is warming up her vocal cords.

The idea of public sector union membership is simply sickening and outrageous.

Even the most famous communist, 4 term US President, FDR, was against public sector unions. {I could be wrong about FDR being a true communist, he was probably more of a nazi or fascist than a true communist, but he had a lot of comrade beliefs}.

The one thing the anti-Walker crowd cannot do....name one thing he did as Governor that was not conservative.

FReepers take note and remember the names of our fellows who oppose a decent conservative, like Walker.

None of them have a sire from the CIA, a Washington-insider who faked being Texan, and the personal fortune plus ties to the corpratist moneymen of the Bush family.

Again, without the recall challenge, would he be enjoying such overwhelming party support as he does now? Would he even be dipping his toe in the water?

Doncha just love it?

The entire nation watched as the rat legislators cowardly fled to Illinois. The entire nation watched as labor unions and other rat liberals trashed the state capitol, making Walker the national figure he is now. We owe Wisconsin rats a big thank you, for showing the entire U.S. just exactly what they are and what they represent.

The ferocity of the anti-Walker attacks during the recall attempt cannot be understated: no stone was left unturned, no “scandal” or slip of the tongue left unmentioned, and this may only help candidate Walker going into 2016. The Democrats spent millions of dollars and thousands of hours digging, scooping, ad-cutting, and hammering. They threw the kitchen sink at the guy in 2012, threw their neighbor’s sink at him in 2014, and now nobody on the block will let them inside to pee. Out of useful topsoil, what do they do now?

The Left has handed the "Attack Walker" baton over to some of the folks on FR, who want to show them how to absolutely destroy what may be one of our only choices for who next sits in the WH.

The new call seems to be "CRUZ or LOSE (and that's alright with us)"

It’s why the RINOs will unite to undo him. They’re not stupid and they won’t take him head on. They’ll saddle up to him and shiv him.

I'm a big Walker fan and right now, he sits at the top of my list but this:

Sounds too much like a rat tactic.
