Walker / Cruz!?
I like Walker.
He would be an excellent second to Cruz. They are both fighters, both of them fearless. That is the quality that impresses me most about both of them.
This is pretty good analysis. He has his warts, but he does fight back. Thats whats been missing from the GOP leadership.
Beg pardon, Rush, but no, "people" aren't willing to overlook certain things. You can't on the one hand say that Republicans should fight tooth and nail against amnesty and then nominate someone who's squishy on it.
That'd be like campaigning against Obamacare and then nominating the guy who invented it. No party would be stupid enough to anger its base by doing that, right?
Oh.
Point being ... if you'll cave on that core conservative principle, what else will you cave on?
We need a fighter who wins—and Walker’s done it.
Yeah, he ain’t perfect, but I’m down for Walker!
Is Walker going to fight his GOPe buddies? Doubtful.
Thanks for posting this. Walker should have every opportunity to sharpen his position on immigration in the coming days. It will then be up to each of us to determine if we can support him. From limited reading lately, I see many on the board declaring him DOA on this one issue.
Lay that aside (of course, I will be told that you CANNOT lay it aside) and consider Rush’s main point - i.e. That Walker had DONE things that we want done.
I like Cruz a lot. Let’s be clear. He has stood and fought the hard Left as well as the soft left. But, being in a minority of the minority, he has not been able to accomplish anything beyond rhetoric.
Let’s keep Ted in the Senate where he can now give MM constant and unvarnished hell and force the Kentucky Tool to tie his own success to concessions to the Conservative agenda, so ably championed by Cruz.
Plus the idea of a newly elected Senator abandoning his office in his first term just seems wrong to me.
Damn straight.
Fight!
It’s all about the base, ‘bout the base... no RINOs.

The transcript above from Rush explains why an awful lot of Cruz supporters here on FR don’t have full faith in Cruz’s ability to beat back Walker.
It’s right there in a lot of the posts, and some don’t even need reading between the lines.
This is going to be a frigging disaster.
Sentimentality over substance. He says the nice stuff, so we better rally behind him?
Are some people on the right THIS damn desperate?
This seems to be the perpetual beauty contest of candidates that the gop wing of the uniparty comes out with. Rest assured that whomever is picked will have the uniparty seal of approval. That or they’ll throw the election to the ‘rat faction with not even a second thought.
Walker has executive experience in running a Democrat county and state.
HE KNOWS THE KEYS ISSUES and has beaten the Liberals and the liberal judges and labor. Scott knows how to turn around an out of control government and return it for the benefit of the people.
Conservatives may not win on every issue, but knocking other candidates on single issues could bury us in defeat.
Scott knows that the USA needs to return power and decision making to the states. Competition is good for the USA. Just compare Texas and Wisconsin to California, Illinois and New York. We need to reduce federal power and spending.
Conservatives need to win, make positive changes, and with results that really helps the USA and find leaders that will continue the conservative agenda.
We need to do it right with God on our side.
Amnesty, H-1b and the MSM seems OK with him. I am suspicious.
