The Dems, being elitist scum, will try this road for a while. I doubt they’ll gain much traction with it. In fact, it’s more likely to backfire a bit, as most folks will scratch their heads and wonder why anyone is making a big deal out of a guy who got a good job after three years of college, and wound up with a life too busy to go back. Too many Americans have followed the same path, or know someone they love who has followed this path.

They will eventually abandon this line of attack and try to make a stink over the fact that his wife is 12 years older than him. Which, for some, will have a faint odor of a certain disreputableness.

But that will clash directly with the feminist narrative, and will go over similarly.

Early indications are that Gov. Walker has very few negative “hooks” onto which to latch, and if they don’t find something a lot more potent, they may have a frustrating electoral year in 2016, if Republicans are smart enough to nominate Gov. Walker, or someone as readily electable as he.

I like your perspective on this.

As tactics go it’s pretty lame. No point in getting heated about it - if/when confronted about it Scott will gently mock anyone foolish enough to attempt it. Like the stupid gotcha question about evolution he denies them the satisfaction of the snare while leaving them with handfuls of nothing - but everybody is talking about it (free publicity).

While the jury is still out on whether or not Walker has the mojo to win POTUS the jury is definitely in on The Screamer - he’s a retrograde duncecap.
