The failed recall attempt caused Michigan democrats to drop their attempt to recall Rick Snyder in Michigan.

Scott Walker is:

• Conservative
• Likable
• A proven winner (won statewide three times in four years in an Obama state)

He's the perfect combination of electable and conservative. I can't fathom why he's at 1% nationally in the 2016 primary polls, while Jeb Bush is at top.

Very good, but may I ask — What’s his stance on illegal immigration?

After the unions and dimoKKKRATS did everything they could to take him out. They spent millions upon millions and it still did not work. By the way no thinks Christy who controlled the governors money bag for re-election.

I don’t know. I can’t imagine he deals much with that issue, as a non-federal politician, and one who is in a non-southern border state.

The reason I ask is because he is now being eyed by a lot of conservatives to be the Presidential candidate for 2016.

It might not be in his job description now, but sooner or later, IMMIGRATION will be an issue.

Walker has been trying for years to keep illegal aliens from Illinois from pouring across his southern border {especially Bear's fans}.

My question is: Will conserative Freepers consider him an actuall conservative Republican or do they view him as “just another RINO”?

My personal view is that he is a good conservative.

He's pro-amnesty.

"They spent millions upon millions and it still did not work."

And we, in Wisconsin, appreciate them for their dollars, er, "efforts" I mean. Don't stop now. Just keep trying. Let's get Wisconsin's economy really rolling.

The trouble is, the vast majority of that money is pumped into the lamestream media. Why else do you think they work so hard to keep everybody ginned up and at each other's throats? The media profits handsomely from division.

Cute. He’s not pro-Amnesty:

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/11/19/Exclusive-Gov-Scott-Walker-I-don-t-support-amnesty-or-pathway-to-citizenship-mainstream-took-me-out-of-context

This has been tried again and again and again. He has clearly stated he’s a “close the front door” i.e. tight border security supporter. The context during the interview was “would you support immigration reform” his answer “yes, would consider it - but only after we close the front door.” Liberal media ran around pushing this canard high and low. They new it would hurt him.

He was for it before he was against it.

In the Slate comments, “Koch brothers bought the election” is part of almost every single liberal post.

I wonder who pays them to type that tripe.

The link was a mistake...a pic of Chuck Yeager I posted on the Virgin Galactic Pilot thread about the survivor of that crash.

Here's the link about Walker's support for a "path-to-citizenship," dated from July 2013:

Gov. Walker backs citizenship pathway for illegal immigrants

Deny it all you want---he was for amnesty before he as against it.
