Where there’s smoke there is usually fire. Not always but usually. Better to find out now than after the guy gets nominated and then smeared to defeat by the Dems. Maybe this is why Walker has not yet announced.
We have better candidates that don’t have any taint to them.
1% of that budget is $350 million dollars.
The BIG DEAL of this paragraphs-long "journalistic" endeavour is a $500,000 loan.
How much is $500K? Well, it is a FRACTION of 1% of the entire state budget.
So. If the BEST this "journalist" Matthew DeFour can come up with is a problem with a fraction of 1% of the budget and trumpet it as a major problem, then I am pleased that Walker is considering a run for the presidency.
I am equally pleased that the Republicans in Wisconsin care enough about this fiscal minutiae to consider reforming it.
When was the last time you heard about Democrats caring enough about welfare abuse that they wanted to fix it?
Answer: Never.
Matthew DeFour, the writer of this piece, claims to be non-partisan.
The literal reading of his comments is that government jobs creation, touted by Walker, does not work. That is a strike against Walker. I would not suggest that this makes him a weak candidate because of a potential federal investigation. That is, frankly, leftist talking point nonsense created by Walker's many political enemies.
What it does say is that Walker has shown nonconservative qualities, namely state intrusion into private business. No candidate is perfect however. But it is worth your while keeping track of the situation in case there are substantive allegations of improper dealings.
Funny how that works.
