DES MOINES, Iowa — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) delivered a fiery speech in Iowa on Saturday, wowing the conservative crowd with a passionate argument for small government and his own lengthy resume.

Scott Walker is someone I could vote for
if walker could flip Wisconsin, he would be formidable.
Anyone soft on Amnesty is a RINO.
illegal aliens do not have special rights over Americans.
Anyone who doesnt see that is beyond help.
Scott Walker is my second choice after Ted Cruz my #1 Choice.
Love My Gov! BUMP!
I think all these speeches should be on YouTube or C-Span website by tonight.
He needed to run in 2012. I’m with Cruz in 2016.
he was sort of busy with the recall in 2012.
Well, remember, the recall was in June. He should’ve declared for President immediate after he beat that farce, because he was a rock star at that point, and Willard the Ringer should’ve been dumped at the convention. That would’ve given the country an actual set of choices for November.
C-Span video of the speech is up. He comes on around the 3:30 mark.

How strange.
He can talk without a teleprompter.

No, no. AFTER the recall. I was promoting his candidacy at the time and to dump Willard, given that half the base voters opposed his candidacy. Walker could’ve charged into the GOP Convention with enough supporters to try to nullify that ludicrous farce of a primary. A righteous revolt by the base.
Agreed. From what I have seen I could support him. (He is a bit of a monotone type speaker-after seeing him on FOX.)
impossible. literally impossible. the primaries ended two weeks after the recall.
The recall was in JUNE, 2012. He could NOT have run in the primaries, and Romney had the delegates, so no brokered convention. And yes, there was still unfinished business in the courts (still is actually) on concealed carry and voter ID. Now, with THREE wins in four years under his belt, Walker is the most vetted candidate in the first tier. He also has shown that he can take hits from the most hostile media outside of San Francisco.
The whole point was to storm the convention and overthrow that ludicrous bought-and-paid-for Establishment Socialist farce Willard, delegates or no. The base had no reason to abide by a choice taken out of their hands, delegates or no. Willard should’ve been run out of that convention with pitchforks.
im-poss-ible. honestly, the utter detachment from reality of some folks is simply astonishing.
“candidate A didn’t accomplish this impossible to accomplish thing, therefore I’m supporting candidate B”. it’s just nonsensical.
He made some great points today.
Wisconsin is the only state with a fully funded retirement system.
As governor, he got pro-life legislation passed and defunded Planned Parenthood.
He believes in the integrity of elections, so voters are now required to have a photo ID.
Taxes in Wisconsin are lower today than four years ago.
Best line: “We need leaders who will stand with our allies against radical Islamic terrorists!”
