OK so my take from this is that Walker has no plan to reduce the size of government. He just wants to shift it to the states. No reductions in spending. No reductions in regulation or oversight. Just a mild difference on where it's coming from.

And his idea of reaching out to Congress day one is just plain silly. He got his agenda through in Wisconsin because he had a Republican majority in the legislature and no filibuster. He will likely have a Republican majority in Congress but the Democrats will try and block everything he sets out to do.

And he’s already on record saying that the filibuster rule should be dispensed with, I believe. I’m sure that as Governor he realized how impossible it would have been to get anything serious accomplished if that rule was in place in the state legislature.

Then you are not very bright.

Just look at what Walker did in Wisconsin and tell me he did not reduce the size of government.
