Gov. Scott Walker was on the American Action Forum on CSPAN.
He did very well, articulate, informed, assertive, not scary or weird. When a person has a philosophy and facts, it is easy to answer questions and give a clear position.
Mr. Walker is for border security first.
If we can't get that, all else is irrelevant.
And the ‘security Moms(or Caregivers)’ were a big part of the overwhelming Republican?Conservative 2014 victory.
He has not shown the witty, amiable perceptive bullsht that Mr. Reagan could shovel to friends and opponents, so I don't know about how he will come across on the national stump or in sound bites.
The big loser Republican campaign consultants could make him into a cold mush unpalatable to many Americans.
Palin/Walker would have both zip and substance, appealing to both the social and economic concerns of a majority of potential voters.

“He has not shown the witty, amiable perceptive bullsht that Mr. Reagan could shovel to friends and opponents, so I don’t know about how he will come across on the national stump or in sound bites.”

Yeah well Bob Dole wasn’t a barrel of laughs either. In fact none of our candidates since Reagan had much humour except George W Bush who was elected twice. As much as we all hammer Bush on his faults and RINO leanings he was at least likable and could actually be pretty funny. Can’t say that about Dole, McCain, Romney etc. Besides the fact those RINOs did not provide enough distinction compared to the dem those candidates were not even likable which is extremely important in a general election. Obama is not likable either but somehow he is perceived to be .. perhaps because of hois shit-eating smile ... plus he is black so he got a pass

I see the Rove-ing idiot was just on bashing Walker and praising Bush. I wish FOX would dump that dough boy.

“It’s all is about the 11 million [undocumented immigrants],” Walker said. “You hear some people talk about border security and a wall and all that. To me, I don’t know that you need any of that if you had a better, saner way to let people into the country in the first place.”

Walker added: “If people want to come here and work hard in this country, I don’t care if you come from Mexico or Canada or Ireland or Germany or South Africa or anywhere else. I want them
