....The trouble is that simple “strong leadership” isn't going to get the job done. Here's why. Almost everything we want the next president to do will fly in the face of liberal conventional wisdom and the liberal activist world, so everything he and his administration and Congress want to do will face determined opposition that will fill the airwaves and the public square.
The next president needs to be someone like Ronald Reagan and prep himself for the presidency by broadcasting issue-a-week radio spots for years before he ran for president. He'd need to be a charmer who could push a Tip O'Neill around without seeming to apply any pressure. He might even need to develop a meme that he was a lightweight who didn't attend to details.
He would need to be a candidate who had really worked up a conservative reform agenda and a strategy for taking the liberal citadel by cunning rather than brute force or bluff and bluster. A magic bullet like the secret passage -- known only to Badger! -- by which the Mole, the Water Rat, and the Badger retook Toad Hall from the stoats and weasels ain't gonna work. No, the next president would really have to think deeply about what he could do and where; otherwise there is no chance for successful reform that meets and beats the liberal stoats and weasels.
Sorry, chaps. “Strong leader” isn't going to work for Republicans any more than “Lightworker” worked for the Democrats. Ask the Germans.

Time to Rein in Public Sector Unions [Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker did this in 2011]
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker did this in 2011. He signed legislation eliminating the power of unions to bargain over government benefits and work rules, and strictly limited bargaining over wages. This enabled Walker to transform a $3.6 billion budget shortfall into a surplus and $2 billion in tax cuts. Savings came not just from cutting government pay, but also from operating more efficiently.
"Taking away in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants." [June 2011, 6 months into his 1st term - only state and gov to do this]
"Mandating immigration background checks in all 72 Wisconsin counties." [2011]
"Supporting a lawsuit to rollback on President Obama’s executive action on immigration." [2014]
"...The governor, who was joined Wednesday by Republican lawmakers and families who supported the measures, has been an outspoken supporter of gun rights. Walker previously made Wisconsin the 49th state to legalize concealed carry — even in state buildings — and signed a "castle doctrine" bill giving homeowners more legal protections if they shoot an intruder.
He also has a 100 percent rating from the National Rifle Association and spoke at the NRA's annual meeting in April. The NRA in a statement Wednesday called the bills' signing a "victory for gun rights in Wisconsin."........
When Hillary claimed that she was intimidated by Rick Lazio, I thought to myself “Now that’s they type of weak leadership that America craves.” That’s why I voted for Hillary! /sarc

Whatever.
No one cares.
Scott Walker won 3 elections in 4 years — fighting the unions bosses, big government, big education, big liberal DA witch hunt, and big media from day 1 in a blue state.
Now read the articles.
