I see Walker as the GOPe default candidate. He has been protected by the MSM and GOP from the time they first started grooming him. It is no mystery as to why I am interested in this. Walker is running for President and I live in this country.

My number 1 issue is illegal immigration. Not only has Walker been weak and indecisive, he kept floating Rubio as his running mate. How anyone can believe that he is serious about solving illegal immigration is a mystery.

The nation cannot afford to have Walker do to jobs and the middle class what he has done in Wisconsin. Since he has been governor Wisconsin has lost its middle class faster than any other state. They are 44th in private sector job creation. He promised 250,000 jobs his first term. Now, into his second term he is over 100,000 jobs short of that. The Wisconsin economy has grown at about half the rate as the rest of the country.

I think that those in Wisconsin who like what Walker is doing should be glad for him to stay there. In other words, if you like your Governor, you can Keep you Governor.

Ha! You see Walker as the GOPe darling and ignore the giant in the room - Jeb Bush! Please....

If your top issue is illegal immigration, then which candidate appeals most to your idea? They've all been all over the map. Cruz talks well but his votes give some things away. Trump has been all over the map. Walker flip-flopped. Bush is full blown - let em in.

I would encourage you to re-examine the job growth in Wisconsin. The numbers you provided are not accurate at all and have been pointed out as such in numerous articles. You are correct in Walker not having raised 250,000 jobs. He fell short - and I don't see job growth as a bad metric. Doyle cratered the state and Walker has it growing again. Your bias is showing loud and clear.

I would still like to know why you are so singularly focused on Scott Walker and diving DEEP into the details when you haven't lived nor do you live in the state? I mean you posted articles from the DailyKoz to support your case. That takes a special kind of intent.
