Walker survived three recall attempts, and all kinds of shenanigans when he was going after the unions. If there were *any* legitimate dirt on him, they would have brought it out by now.

So far so good. As a presidential candidate, particularly as the nominee, Walker will face scrutiny several magnitudes more intense.

..a couple of thoughts, thinking in conspiratorial terms:

Who is the stalking horse for whom--Jeb for Walker or vice versa?-- the goal to neutralize Cruz

And IF Walker is also pro-amnesty, what we may be seeing is the powerful and unstoppable hand of the North American Union people...

I’m not looking for a one trick pony. I’m sick of hearing about the unions. That is great for WI. I’m waiting for the guy to jell. He’s suspect on immigration and that’s a major concern. If Michelle Malkin is skeptical you should be too.

Cruz is fine. I am a single issue voter and my issue is illegal immigration. Paul lost me when he went soft on illegals. Dido Rubio. I do not trust Walker on immigration. So far only Cruz gets it right, Paul did at first but then went all GOPe on the issue, he appears to be coming back around. So he might be acceptable as a second choice after Cruz, the rest I don’t trust.

As soon as I find out, I will post who Malkin favors.
Sorry, been busy with golf and stock market last few days.

IDK since had not much time to research.
My guess is it is either Cruz or Perry.

I would think that if Walker wasn't troubled by what she said, he would have insisted that she stay with his campaign and call out the nonsense of the non-issue. But he did not, so, once again, I am left with the impression that he will throw staffers under the bus.

BTW, where was Walker, that cold day in 2011, when Sarah Palin was rallying his supporters on the grounds of the State Capitol, in a sleet storm?

Ahh, no. You are wrong. Walker did endorse Cesar Chavez last year. You know it, I know it, and now more Freepers know it.

The H1-B visa promotion by the liberals and Blue Dog Republicans have me worried. I cannot believe I have to fight for a paycheck from an illegal invader. That’s not right. So I feel justified exposing politicians I believe are intent on doing the Chamber of Amnesty’s bidding. It’s not like I am not posting links to articles to bring about situational awareness. My news sources do legitimize my concerns, and probably most other Freepers.

I challenge Walker’s record. I’m not making up stuff about him when I link to his own words, his own deeds, his own hypocritical stances. C’mon. Stay with Cruz and you won’t have to suffer the humiliation from a Walker Blue Dog Republican presidential campaign that begs for conservatives votes, but abandons the conservative agenda once he is elected to the presidency.

I read this article. It’s very deceptive. The great thing about candidates who are governors is that their records tend to be more clear cut. Unlike senators they can’t parade one set of votes before one group and a completely different amalgamation before another. Boyle, the writer, never mentions that the governor:
1.) vetoed in-state tuition for illegal aliens
2.) signed one of only 7 voter id laws in the country and
3.) just cut funding for the test that goes with Common Core

Good call on Ryan, that really was kind of a cluster**** election, and Ryan didn't contribute (except for the one debate he had with Plugs) except for his haircut, which the 'Rats borrowed for their "throw-Granny-off-the-cliff" foul-play ad, that would have made a bookend on the election with the outstanding Clint Eastwood speech that the MSM immediately filtered and which Mark "My Daddy Was a Traitor" Halperin bragged to Charlie Rose and CBS News the same night, would never be seen by the general public, it'd be filtered by his shower-buddies in the MSM. And it was.

Ryan, Cantor, Krispy Kreme .... the GOP-e has a bench that is deeper than hell, and each time one of them achieves Fail, they just whistle up another Judas horse.

Re: Autocorrect

Unplugged mine, too, a couple of days ago. Went into the Swiftkey settings for my Android palmtop (which I use with a Azio Bluetooth keyboard) and turned off practically every subroutine they had, to get to the Autocorrect bot. Life's been a lot simpler since then. I was posting incomprehensible drivel on my state board and having to go back and edit (at least you can do that on the state boards)....

Not one of their better AI efforts. Ree-jected!

.....abandons the conservative agenda once he is elected to the presidency.

Well, that's what I'm afraid he's getting so much exposure and promotion from the GOP and MSM for. Dick Nixon did exactly that after he got sworn in, in 1969. Ralph Whalen was a conservative who worked in Nixon's campaign because Nixon mobilized the Goldwater people, on one hand, and on the other had helped RiNO's like Sen. Charles Percy and Charles Mathias of Md. get elected in 1966 (he made a major effort to help/court every GOP'er he could, that year, which is how people knew he was on the comeback road from his 1962 disaster).

Whalen was given an appointment after the inauguration, but he resigned six months later when it became obvious that the appointment was a sop, and that Nixon was going to pursue an Establishment agenda that didn't include any Goldwaterite people or values.

And we all know what happened when Tricky Dick got driven back to the last ditch in 1974 and found nobody there. Even Barry Goldwater himself was on the Senate Bad News Team that brought Nixon the message from the GOP congressional caucus: Resign or be impeached.

Nixon decided at some point to become LBJ and FDR, and the crap they used to pull with total press immunity was what Kitty Graham and Ben Bradlee used to drive Nixon out of office.

One would like to think that, if Barry and a staff team loaded with Goldwaterites had been on board, that they might have been able to talk Nixon out of that imperial-presidency stuff.

The good news is, Tricky Dick shoved that imperial presidency so far up the Democrats' *sses that it became radioactive for a generation, and even 20 years later Slick was complaining that he couldn't do the stuff Landslide Lint'n used to do regularly, like sic the FBI on people. (They had to settle for Beastie's getting the raw FBI files on people.)

I don't know. My memory of 2012 is already a bit fuzzy, but iirc, it was delayed that year from March to the end of April.

The GOP-e was complicit, as witness the quote by Romney, when someone asked him why he wasn't even making one appearance in Texas despite its being such a loaded State. Romney said, cynically, "They'll come to me when I'm the last man standing", viz., it was all over but the shouting and Texas finally got to vote after the race was over.

I like to think that it was that abusively instrumentalist attitude that cost him the election. The man was a tool, and everyone knew it by Election Day.
