No way is Walker a proven conservative.
If you want to believe journalists who refuse to do their jobs and report the whole story, that's your problem.
I’ll be voting for Cruz, period.
Good for Cruz!
Personally, I don’t think it will cost him Iowa either. The world needs more food, not more ethanol. Iowa farmers are smart enough to figure that out.
I don’t think this will split the base, I think the two of them will wind up as running mates. The only question is, who leads the ticket. Obviously I’d prefer Cruz at the top, the Walker partisans would prefer him at the top. But they aren’t going to go after each other hard because they are going to have an 8 year partnership. I believe.
How exactly is he going to turn things around?
I don’t ever believe journalists. And I never trust politicians until I see proof. And your liberal argument style nastiness simply does not substitute for facts
You can think whatever you want I don’t care Walker has not proved anything to me so I’m calling out the statement.
You can go on bloviating or you can attempt to prove your statement
I’m just saying no sale. That’s all
I am a common-man with the intense desire to campaign for an American leader like Ronald Reagan showed himself to be.
I am a part of the grassroots of America that yearns to be free from the obamanation, from the establishment, from the Chamber of Amnesty, from Satan's grip on America's heart.
I now fight to win, to elect a man like Ted Cruz to save our beaten-down nation.
The Reigniting of the Miracle of America will start when we Conservatives give voice once again to the grassroots movement of politics!
You already know this, but others might not: WI's motto is 'Forward'. MSNBC's tagline is 'Lean Forward'. How ironic, huh?
BTW, Bama's motto is "We Dare To Defend Our Rights". And guess what? Bama is now righteous Red and to the Right.
THis issue matters to agribusinessmen and farmers. It does not matter to the vast majority of voters, nor to any of those who don’t follow politics (LIVs) who will show up to vote in 2016 based on TV ad soundbites.
Zactly.
Like Jeffery Toobin is our “friend”. Hardly. He’s quoting Politico by the second paragraph, already, like they are some bastion of analysis and authority on conservatism.
We can expect to be, each of us, put through the meat slicer for the next two years. The Left saw how we devoured each other over the last primary months that caused the regurgitation of RomneyAnn as our nominee.
Very true. good points
I agree. Walker is the only won who actually has done anything against the democrats/media complex and won.
He’s a proven governor and leader that has defeated socialism/democrats time and time again.
Walker as president would restore the free market, freedom and prosperity in America
Yes the liberal news media plant seeds into conservatives like this ethanol bs . It’s meant to get the purists going saying Walker’s not pure . And it’s also meant to divide us. see who the liberal news media attack and that’s who they fear and who we should support.
They want principle until their own ox is being gored. Ted Cruz maybe would rather be right than president, like Henry Clay, but history remembers those who were presidents.
Hahahaha! You guys kill me. You howl about “RINOs” and “squishes” until we get near an election, and all of a sudden, any candidate that can fake conservatism or talk a good game is “Reaganesque” and “electable.”
> “It is just as much a given that Senator Ted Cruz is not regarded as likely to win the nomination.”
Iowa is never a predictor. Iowa just doesn’t matter.
It served as a predictor just once that I’m aware of on the Republican side: 1980.
The media Beltway types like Tobin are scared to death of Senator Cruz. They will bad mouth him every chance they get.
And Walker will be used by the media to suppress sentiment for Cruz. And once Walker is anointed, they will turn on him.
Statistically not significant.
Reagan was an outlier. He turned electoral politics on its head.
Are you talking about Walker?
Scott Walker has actually defeated socialism/democrats and the media in a liberal state several times on several issues and several elections. Walker has done conservative things, and passed conservative policies. Actions meant everything,words mean NOTHING.
