I think we just got confirmation of where Walker really stands on immigration. Anyone else getting that drift?
If Rubio is his pick, I hope it is nothing more than a shoring up of support, such as when Regan picked the elder RINO GHW Bush as his running mate.
I think that is a flawed way to interpret it. We all don't like Rubio's position on illegal Immigration, and many of us suspect Walker's not being totally honest with us about *HIS* position on illegal immigration, but I think he's looking at electoral votes, and not policy positions.
Walker wins. He does this by throwing his weight behind things for which he can get the votes. I don't like Rubio, but I can't deny he would be a net plus on Walker's ticket. He would soothe the moderates.
Florida is a must win. Rubio would cinch it for him, and he can turn his remaining money and forces to other "Must Win" states, like Ohio or Pennsylvania.
Not surprised. But is he suggesting himself at the top of the ticket or Rubio? Because Walker hasn’t announced yet.
Why would Walker, who is claiming now to be the farthest to the right on immigration pick Rubio who is completely the opposite? Why would he pick someone who stabbed conservatives in the back?
I think his pick will tell you a lot about Walker if he gets the nomination. And he won’t pick Ted Cruz.
A VP doesn't call the shots - but it would be a strange choice to say the least for a candidate as anti-immigration as Walker claims to be. It's beginning to look like any vote I cast will be with nose firmly held.
