I hope that means it won’t be available in 2016.

“Walker-Martinez”

I definitely go for the top of that ticket. In fact, I think Walker is the obvious candidate (and the only candidate I know of out there) that every wing of the party can enthusiastically get behind. All these positives in a candidate don’t come along too often.

However, I’m not sure about Martinez. I’ve heard she’s kind of a RINO on several issues. Can anyone shed some more light on her positions? I do not want to pick a candidate based solely on gender and minority status. However, if we were to go that route, there’s Haley in SC or Jindal in LA who are both solid conservatives.

Really, in the history of Unions, has anyone been more effective than Walker at crushing their dreams?

I don't believe so, at least in my lifetime. We need many more leaders like him!

There is going to be incredible pressure put on American women, regardless of age, marital status, religion, or ideology, to vote for Hillary to become the first female president. Therefore the GOP needs a female vp nominee. Nikki Haley is fine but we don’t need her. Martinez is Hispanic and from a toss up state. Former prosecutor and solid governor.

It's useful to note Koch has been doing business in Wisconsin since the 1970s or earlier. They just didn't arrive on Walker's behalf.

Worth noting, thanks.

Needless to say there’s there’s no love lost between Koch and the thug unions.

Trust me on this, republican women are not going to feel the slightest bit of pressure to vote for Hillary; in fact, we will do our best to talk women who are inclined to vote for Hillary out of it. Don't think so little of us, please.

Chris Christie is in the same position here in NJ in terms of the public employees’ unions. Taxpayers are being bled to death by them, they are constantly attacking Christie for shining a spotlight on their compensation/benefits, and he remains popular despite their slings and arrows.

Our government worker class is now our upper-middle class, and any challenge to that is met with entitlement drivel. When the Asbury Park Press released the salaries of all of NJ’s public school teachers years ago, it ended the debate about “underpaid” teachers; Christie won his first election, and those employees circled the wagons and hunkered down. They are now an incestuous bunch, marrying within the the government employee ranks and completely out of touch with the taxpayers who pay them.

That thug Trumka has to be ticked off enough he could chew nails, his thugs didn't come through for him.

Yep - he's pissed that it isn't the good old days when they could go around breaking heads without consequences. It really put a crimp in the style if this dinosaur of an organization.

Scotty Walker should take the James Cagney role in “Public Enemy”, where he sits in his P.J.s at the breakfast table, and after an argument, James pushes a grapefruit right into Mae Clarke’s face. Trumka can sit for the Mae Clarke role, albeit with some heavy pancake makeup.

That is just not in Scott Walker's character. This is a man whose first words upon mounting the podium at his Victory rally were, "Thank God. No, I really mean it. Thank God for his abundant grace..."

Scott Walker is the son of a minister, and it shows in his calm demeanor. I cannot imagine facing people who openly plotted for my ruin, let alone working with them on a regular basis. No shrinking violet, throughout these battles, Scott remains steadfast, stubborn and determined to prevail, and prevail he has.

Scotty shows you can be tough without always rolling in the dirt with the pigs, the way a certain Governor of New Jersey has been known to do at the drop of a hat. Walker is the right man for Wisconsin at this time, and I think the right man to be our next President.

Wisconsin thanks the unions and lib activist groups for the injection of millions of dollars into our local economy.

It should help make the "Wisconsin Comeback" all that more robust. Walker wins again.
