I didn't say that I would ally with him after his apology or accept him back into the fold as if he had not been a sTrumpette, just that I would accept the apology. He's not my family. I suspect he voted for Willard last time exactly as you say. I am pinging him only because we are discussing him and certainly not out of a desire for further conversation with him. My above-cited bibliography is still my answer to him.

Since I DO listen to you, what is your problem with Scott Walker? Living just south of Wisconsin as I do, I must say that his performance as governor up there has exceeded that of any governor in my lifetime, even the sainted Ronaldus Maximus. I have followed this guy since he was a state representative, then overthrew Demonrat control of the Milwaukee County Board by recalling most Demonrats on the Board, became County Board Chairman, moved on to break the Demonrat stranglehold on the governorship by beating Milwaukee's hopelessly leftist Mayor Tom Barrett, enacted a state right-to-work law for most public employees (excepting police and firemen), enacted right-to work for everyone public or private not already excepted, enacted right-to-life bill after bill, enacted photo ID to vote, cut taxes, balanced budgets, worked with the conservative black Democrat Sheriff Clarke of Milwaukee County on law and order issues, expanded school vouchers to free more kids from the public schools, defeated the attempt to recall him and his lieutenant governor and several state senators and a crucial state supreme court justice and literally dozens of other wonderful things. His latest was ending tenure for teachers at least at University of Wisconsin, if not the state's public elementary and secondary schools (of which I am not sure).

His campaign has not been up to his normal standards in terms of effectiveness but Scott Walker looks to me like a great guy and the left's worst nightmare.

Your turn.

Walker is USCOC. Walker is GOPE. That’s a no go on 2 fronts for me. No need to even get into his doubletalk on issues.

If we want the GOP gone, it isn’t going to work to keep their fair haired boys in our votes. I -would- put Walker ahead of a Mitt or a Perry or a Huckabee or Kaish. That said he’s still far under 80% in my view and I believe his actions back that up.

His flip flops and shaky ground on Homo issues tell me he is not to be trusted to stand on principle and his choice in associates and staff hires finish it.

Worse choices? Absolutely. But that’s relative.
