Scott Walker: Nominee at Brokered Convention Will Be Someone ‘Not Currently Running’
Breitbart ^ | 3/24/16 | patrick Howley

Wisconsin governor Scott Walker said Thursday that in the event of a contested convention, the Republican nominee will likely be someone who is “not currently running.” “I think if it’s an open convention, it’s very likely it would be someone who’s not currently running,” Walker said. “I mean, who knows. The one thing I qualify — it’s like the qualifications you see on those ads you see for car dealerships. I think any of us who comment on this election have to qualify that almost every prediction’s been off, so it’s hard to predict anything,” Walker added. Walker’s own run for the presidency went down in flames before the Iowa caucus even happened, due in large part to Walker hiring a D.C.-based team that didn’t know how to manage a conservative Midwesterner.

I don’t like Walker and I despise Paul Ryan. They can both go to hell.

Ryan. Take it to the bank.

He’ll lose, of course, but that will be his role.

The Establishment is longingly hoping for a Hillary victory.

If that happens the Republican party as we know it is gone. And that may not be such a bad thing.

After 8 years of Hillary, there will be no Republicans. No Democrats. No Americans.

What does that have to do with offering his opinion?

Cruz will someday be a failed candidate too.

I found it on Bill Mitchell’s twitter page. He’s a big Trump supporter

It is getting time for Trump and Cruz to get together to fight this

This is so freaking stupid. Trump is not my first choice, but neither was Romney, McCain or frankly George W Bush. In each case, the winner gets the nod and then we turn out to vote in November. Except for this year, it seems.

People say that but not only will the Republican Party die, so will the country. And not for “a generation” but forever. The Second Amendment will not survive Hillary and a Marxist-controlled Supreme Court. Neither will liberty.

Don't you just pitty the fools that think that somehow cruz is going to slide into the nomination at the convention? cruz is jeb's and mitt's bitch at this point, nothing more. The second Trump is out, they will dump cruz like the whiny little bitch he is.
