Yeah - already setting up the meme that Cruz (my first choice) is the ONLY one worthy of your vote - no wonder the Right is constantly falling further behind.


Hey ... you can't blame me for keeping-up with the News ...


1) Scott Walker "appears" to support Common Core.

Can you provide any credible evidence that he doesn't ?


2) Scott Walker "appears" to support Amnesty (Lite, Heavy, whatever).

Can you provide any credible evidence that he doesn't ?


3) Scott Walker "appears" to support ObamaCare.

Can you provide any credible evidence that he doesn't ?



I admire Scott Walker for his Herculean fight against the unions.



I likewise admire Ted Cruz.

I KNOW "today" how Ted Cruz feels about Amnesty, ObamaCare and Common Core. He's against all three.

I KNOW "today" Ted Cruz passionately supports Israel and FIGHT Islamic Jihad.



Meanwhile ... Jeb Bush ... and Scott Walker ... appear to "support" all three ... Amnesty, Common Core, ObamaCare.

Perhaps I'm wrong about where Scott Walker stands.

But ... it's HIS JOB to convince me otherwise ... "no more" blind faith for ANY GOP candidate.

Ted Cruz had the balls and fight to stand against ObamaCare, virtually alone.

The problem is that we still have Obamacare so although his work was nice it was not effective. Walker on the other hand actually gets his goals met by a very difficult state congress. I just want somebody that can get results. After Obama, I am leary of somebody that can talk.

Walker took some advantage of ObamaCare and other subsidies to get people off of Medicaid and into private coverage: http://www.maciverinstitute.com/research/2014/10/report-medicaid-expansion---wisconsin-got-it-right/ This is in contrast to most other states which simply expanded Medicaid which is the worst case for both taxpayers and the recipients. In short he chose among various bad alternatives and did what was best for his state.

He had no choice considering the Dems did everything they could to squelch the alternatives like charity care, expanded HSA's, limited plans (e.g. without birth control and other nonsense), etc.

OK ... good explanation ...

Now, does Presidential Candidate Scott Walker promise to fully repeal ObamaCare in it's entirety ...

if elected POTUS ?
