Well, he did crush unions which is remarkable and survived a recall. I would love a Cruz/Walker ticket in either order. Maybe 16 years of sanity.

Cruz is sharp. No doubt. My unpopular opinion is that he’s in jeopardy of going overboard on certain social issues, Namely:

Obamacare is a broken egg, you can’t put it back together again and being rabidly anti-obamacare is going to shave a few % from the final statewide counts. It’s just a reality. It needs to be redirected away from it’s single payer trajectory.

Religion is fine and dandy. Christianity even better but Ted, if you want to be a preacher, quit the senate, quite the campaign and go be a preacher. If you want to be a politician, religion should be only an acknowledgment of his personal belief. “Freedom of Religion” is just as specific as “right to bare arms”.

While Cruz is my first choice, I won't discount what Walker has doe against the unions and how he lived to talk about it.

On a side note, after Cruz's actions led to medals being rendered, I saw a blurb on FOX last week saying that the Army has announced benefits for those injured/killed - Go Cruz!

LOL, you guys are cracking me up.

“I don’t think anyone would question that we went big and we went bold,” said Walker.

Walker said the Wisconsin unemployment rate has dropped from 9.2 percent to 4.6 percent while he has been governor.

“We got rid of seniority based on tenure” in schools, he said, clearing the way for “the best and the brightest” to teach.

He ticked off other changes in Wisconsin since he has been governor. He cited tort reform and said “we no longer fund Planned Parenthood.”

Walker said Wisconsin has also passed a concealed carry law and a law requiring IDs in order to vote. He noted he recently signed right-to-work legislation.

Yup, no specifics at all. And yes, to you "union buster" guys, he has done a lot more than bust the unions.
