You keep talking about Wisconsin and what he’s done there, I’m aware of what he’s done so you can stop any time trying to spoon feed me...which you seem to think you have to do...
I’m ‘not’ talking about Wisconsin....’Washington’ is an entirely different beast and we all know that...That is what I want to know... how he intends to handle ‘Washington’ when and if he gets there..... I’m not hearing any more than the same old stuff every other candidate is said in every election... Jobs, Abortion, Social issues and the like. We already know those are issues....but they are not the root of the problem that needs to be handled.
Does Walker have ‘the muscle behind him’ to shake Washington and be effective there and how does he intend to do that?....Because if he goes there on his own and without inside connections to make things happen he’ll fail and then some.....
We can’t afford the time for someone to go there and find their way around the halls of Washington ....and it isn’t good enough to see what he’s done on paper....nor whatever action he’s done in your state. This isn’t about wack-a-mole politics to deflect anything...it’s about the survival of this country.....
I realize your post is an effort to say that Walker can’t find his way around D.C. but that isn’t an issue. He knows government and how it works.
He certainly has been able to walk and chew gum in Wisconsin (under intense fire, since before he was elected governor). I suggest that your concerns are unwarranted.
Walker also seems able to work with his colleagues effectively and when the results of his policies (proof is in the pudding) are in evidence, the electorate (that was told what an awful, stupid, device man he is) come over to his side and “stand with Walker.”
I can’t find the article, but it was about how Walker does accomplish these things when it seems most are afraid to speak out on issues (like the public sector unions).
Basically, Walker listens first. He doesn’t offer his position. He takes in everyone’s position first, then uses those to support his position.
It is a clever negotiating tactic that I am familiar with.
Walker is brilliantly clever in this way.
It worked when he was on Milwaukee Council which was loaded with liberals....yet Walker still was able to bring them along with him on many occasions.
If you research, you can find the article.
I think this is what you are looking for in your question to CW.
Who is your top candidate?
Your post makes a lot of sense. I, too, have beeb asking for specifics on what Walker would do as President. What he has done as governor is not a template because of exactly what you described. Washington has a completely different heirarchy and mode of operation.
I like Cruz because he has told us what he intends to do and I trust him to do it. So far, no one has told me what policies Walker will advance as President.
Too bad Reagan was so ineffective when he came to Washington.
if he had just known more he might have gotten something done........
