Walker is really, really unpopular with the Left. His nomination would dramatically mobilize the Democratic base.

That may or may not be a good thing for us.

I don't think it's the Democratic base we have to worry about. They're going to vote the way they always vote. An increased turnout by labor is going to be offset by decreases in the Black vote.

It's the low information voters you have to worry about. The people who only know one thing about Scott Walker, and that's that he's "against the working man." You'll hear a lot of that from now to next year with "the working man" understood as "the little guy."

I agree. I think our 3 best nominees would be

Cruz (cause he would really rev-up the base)

Trump (for the same reasons, plus he’d pull in a lot of in-the closet Reagan Democrats)

Walker (for the reasons you have outlined)

I think the 3 worst would be

Bush (cause he’d demoralize our base as bad or worse than Walker would demoralize theirs)

Graham (same reason)

Fiorina (as a former CEO she is a sitting duck to be absolutely destroyed in the same manner as Romney....think “everybody HP ever laid-off when she was in charge turning up in a Democrat ad”).

Imagine what would happen to the conservative base having someone to vote FOR for the first time in 30 years...ie Bush, Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney....bleeeech

Back in 2009, the union thugs at SEIU tried to disrupt our Tea Party meeting. We kicked their fat asses. There’s no reason to fear these 50 IQ apes.
