Scotty Walker just outed himself as a Rove -RNC billionaire call boy !

The article stated they wanted to get Walker on board. Walker himself hasn't said anything of the sort.

He, Bush and Rubio would be STUPID to take the deal.

1. It makes them look afraid of Trump.

2. Trump would turn around, and sponsor his own debate ("I paid for this microphone") and everyone of the uninvited (except Perry and Graham) would sign up.

These folks have to learn to let Trump be for a while, instead of insisting on being his straight man.

“The sad reality is Trump is indeed a sideshow carnival barker..”

Yes. Everyone knows that carnival sideshow barkers are routinely self-made billionaires just out for the entertainment.

Hmmmmmmmmmm

so there wont be any awkward answers that the GOPe disagree with ???

Like.. “If I am elected POTUS I will deport ALL illegal aliens”

and “If I am elected POTUS I will cut off food stamps, EBT cards, welfare, free health care for illegal aliens..”

and the current horror..

“If I am elected POTUS I will cut off money to sanctuary cities”

Yet another example of why many of us tried to stop liberals from taking more power in the GOP.

But ‘conservatives’ knew better. Be sure to thank a lesser evil folks.

It is refreshing to hear what a non-politician has to say.

Only 10 can make it to the debate. So suppose the 6 others that don’t make it decide to join Trump in the unofficial GOP debate. It would completely turn tables on who’s in 2nd and 3rd place.

We could see Carly and Carson rising to 2nd place and 3rd place while Rubio sinks to single digits.

Agreed. Jeb Bush finishing a distant 3rd. would go a long way towards achieving our goals.

Actually, the tazmanian devil-like whirling is coming from you.

My point is.. that story has no direct attribution. Why not take a breath and wait to see if it even has veracity?

Trump has always been a Carnival Barker, he’s bombastic, he’s one of the best self promoters on the planet today, its his schtick, its been his schtick since before he built 1 building in NYC, it will probably be his Schtick until he draws his last breath.

The question about Trump is simply this as far as I’m concerned, is he truly interested in the topics he’s promoting... or is he just setting himself up for a Ross Perot type of run.

If he truly cares about the issues he’s claiming to, then his end game is to change the debate, if he runs as a third party, he’s just a shill for the dems.

Time will tell.

Ronald Reagan's - The New Republican Party (it has to happen again..)

We, the members of the New Republican Party, believe that the preservation and enhancement of the values that strengthen and protect individual freedom, family life, communities and neighborhoods and the liberty of our beloved nation should be at the heart of any legislative or political program presented to the American people. Toward that end, we, therefore, commit ourselves to the following propositions and offer them to each American believing that the New Republican Party, based on such principles, will serve the interest of all the American people.

We believe that liberty can be measured by how much freedom Americans have to make their own decisions, even their own mistakes. Government must step in when one’s liberties impinge on one’s neighbor’s. Government must protect constitutional rights, deal with other governments, protect citizens from aggressors, assure equal opportunity, and be compassionate in caring for those citizens who are unable to care for themselves.

Our federal system of local-state-national government is designed to sort out on what level these actions should be taken. Those concerns of a national character -- such as air and water pollution that do not respect state boundaries, or the national transportation system, or efforts to safeguard your civil liberties -- must, of course, be handled on the national level.

As a general rule, however, we believe that government action should be taken first by the government that resides as close to you as possible.

We also believe that Americans, often acting through voluntary organizations, should have the opportunity to solve many of the social problems of their communities. This spirit of freely helping others is uniquely American and should be encouraged in every way by government.

Families must continue to be the foundation of our nation.

Families -- not government programs -- are the best way to make sure our children are properly nurtured, our elderly are cared for, our cultural and spiritual heritages are perpetuated, our laws are observed and our values are preserved.

Thus it is imperative that our government’s programs, actions, officials and social welfare institutions never be allowed to jeopardize the family. We fear the government may be powerful enough to destroy our families; we know that it is not powerful enough to replace them. The New Republican Party must be committed to working always in the interest of the American family.

Every dollar spent by government is a dollar earned by individuals. Government must always ask: Are your dollars being wisely spent? Can we afford it? Is it not better for the country to leave your dollars in your pocket?

Elected officials, their appointees, and government workers are expected to perform their public acts with honesty, openness, diligence, and special integrity.

Government must work for the goal of justice and the elimination of unfair practices, but no government has yet designed a more productive economic system or one which benefits as many people as the American market system.

The beauty of our land is our legacy to our children. It must be protected by us so that they can pass it on intact to their children.

The United States must always stand for peace and liberty in the world and the rights of the individual. We must form sturdy partnerships with our allies for the preservation of freedom. We must be ever willing to negotiate differences, but equally mindful that there are American ideals that cannot be compromised. Given that there are other nations with potentially hostile design, we recognize that we can reach our goals only while maintaining a superior national defense, second to none.

Let Walky, Jebba the Bush and Schmubio walk out. Leave the stage to Trump and Cruz to play tag team with nonstop soundbites of the Washington Cartel and the Beltway Buttkiss Complex.
