I am not familiar with Jeff Roe and, if he lacks character, that counts against Cruz. My candidate was Scott Walker. Cruz is all I am left with. Some time soon, Trump may be all I have left and I am only slightly less enthusiastic about him. I will vote, in that event, for Trump with an industrial strength clothes pin on my nose. He's not the Arkansas Medusa. What a thoroughly despicable election cycle. Our country and Western Civilization likely are both done. We are sticking a fork in them.

Perhaps then you should do some research, since 'character' seems to be important to you. My candidate was also Scott Walker ... but then I read this http://edberry.com/blog/polymontana/player/donald-trump/an-open-letter-to-mark-levin-trump-vs-cruz/, and realized that Scott Walker is an open borders, amnesty hack... He is so into the GOPe lying Ryan, and Romney's 'prince', he was NOT able to set himself apart from the GOPe.

I have relatives that live near Madison, WI... so I have heard about Scott Walker long before he made the national news.

I live in Illinois but rather near to Madison. Madison is known as The People's Republic of Madison and not because of Walker or the GOP legislature. Walker is an exact opposite of Moral Monster Mitt Romney. Romney organized a business to profit from disposing of the broken little corpses of abortion victims, crammed abortion financing down the throats of the still substantial number of Massachusetts pro-lifers, M3R and the entire Klan Romney including Daddy George and Mommy Lenore have been galloping pro-aborts forever. Walker has enacted a variety of pro-life laws, is the believing son of a Baptist minister and has never given aid and comfort to the abortionist enemies of Western Civilization.

But maybe abortion is not your key issue. Many folks have other priorities. How about Right to Work (and defunding unions) first for public employees other than police and fire unions (a necessary concession in traditionally liberal Wisconsin) and THEN for the private sector as well. How about the effort to end teacher tenure at Wisconsin's state colleges/universities. I don't know if that passed but, if it hasn't, he is working on it and he generally gets what he wants.

Any idea of how much it cost the left generally and labor unions in particular in their failed attempts to (1) defeat him in his original run for governor, (2) in occupying the state capitol building (importing Chicago union thugs and occupy everything types to help), (3) in launching and funding the failed attempt to recall him, his LT. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch (whom the tasteless left pilloried as a mastectomy survivor) and several state senators, beating a couple of those but not enough to change control of the State Senate, (4) the failed attempt to elect an outright red (whose Connecticut cousin and chairthing of the CT communist party ran for Congress in the same race as I did waaaaaaay back when) to the Wisconsin State Supreme Court in a failed attempt to thwart Walker by court decisions, (5) their nomination of some fashionable lifestyle leftist bicycle manufacturing executive and Dane County (Madison) school board commie, showing the white flag at last.

Care about guns and the Second Amendment? When Walker was first elected, Wisconsin was, along with Illinois, one of the two most anti-gun states in the union. Courtesy of Walker and his continuing legislative majority, concealed carry has been enacted in Wisconsin. It took the Second Amendment Foundation and Alan Gottlieb and the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals to FORCE Illinois authorities to surrender as well.

Local property taxes? Down courtesy of public employee Right to Work and vast numbers of public workers fleeing the unions! Those workers are doing well but there is a lot less in the way of featherbedding union rules and this will increase with the expiration of each contract. No automatic deduction of union dues either, bargaining unit by bargaining unit, as contracts expire.

Don't like undocumented voters deciding elections. Thanks to Walker, photo ID is required to vote which is certainly a start. Fedcourts have interfered but it would defy imagination to see how states like Wisconsin lack the authority to require ID. The Wisconsin Attorney General, supported fully by Walker, is NOT rolling over and will fight to the end or until we get a genuinely conservative SCOTUS, whichever comes first.

Scott Walker originally made his political bones as Don Michael Corleone might say, as the first Republican and conservative Milwaukee County Executive against worker Marxists as entrenched as Madison's lifestyle left fashionables. He perpetrates against the left "equal opportunity" massacres.

Against all this, you reject Walker as "open borders" and an "amnesty hack" which, even if true, would simply make him, at worst, a superbly effective conservative governor who differs from the border obsessives. Closing the borders, building a wall and most importantly keeping out the Islamolooneytunes are well worth doing. So is all of the rest of conservatism. I will try to get to your suggested article and respond when I do but don't get your hopes up.

Ryan is indeed Lyin' Ryan. I live about six miles south of his district where his constituents have not yet grasped that the conservative young idealist and Kemp acolyte that they sent to Washington years ago has since undergone a metamorphasis and become one of the major DC madames at the Chamber of Commerce, K Street, Wall Street whore house. Maybe the primary coming up will help change that erroneous perception that Ryano is still conservative. Hopefully he undergoes a needed Cantorization as was administered by David Brat to Cantor.

I may vote for Trump when there is nothing left but Trump vs. the Arkansas Medusa. I will NEVER genuflect to him. If he loses, he is finished (and so is the USA). If he wins, we have a remote chance at survival as a nation. "I can tell you that!"
