Do you think this woman is so extraordinary in her role that he just had to pick her?
Would there be a tipping point with you if he kept putting more and more hires around him with similar views?
The point is: Was there really no actual conservatives available to do the same , damn job and avoid such a controversy?!
So is he dumb or does he just not care too much about these issues? ( I put gay marriage and abortion in front of amnesty so he’s especially done to me)

He doesn’t like to talk about social issues. He believes they are a distraction. He will admit that he likes to focus on fiscal issues and that some conservatives go overboard with the social issues.
“I’m pro-life; most Republican governors are pro-life — I don’t apologize for that, but I don’t focus on it; I don’t obsess over it,” Walker told reporters Friday at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast when asked about the inevitable 2016 conversation about social issues. “The governors, we focus on the things that matter most to people, and those are fiscal and economic issues.”
One of Walker’s weaknesses is choosing those who are working for him. He doesn’t always make the best choices. Two have been fired for sending negative tweets about hispanics. One of the women who had been fired had also mailed out a holiday newsletter suggesting that instead of gifts for their children parents donate to walker’s campaign.
Another staffer resigned because she was serving a 20 day jail sentence for her second DD offense.
Another staffer forwarded a phone call from a media guy claiming to be one of the Koch brothers. The caller duped Walker into believing it was him and caused a lot of embarrassment.
A more recent problem with staffers that cause embarrassement and Walker having to amend previous statements.
“While backtracking on earlier comments to reporters, Walker continued to insist in a statement that he hadn’t known what his own administration was doing until after the proposal became public and caused a firestorm of criticism.
He said no one would be disciplined.”
Maybe this kind of thing is common with staff and campaign staffers going rouge or not being fully vetted. I don’t know but it seems to me that it usually ends up reflecting badly on the person running for office as the buck is supposed to stop with them.
