Governor Scott Walker has an impressive record of passing conservative laws , lowering taxes, balancing the budget , defeating democrats.

You are an agent of the left. You are working to get Jeb Bush or Hillary elected so you slander their only conservative opposition

Yes and Walker is saying he is for ethanol because he wants to win in Iowa, which shows he knows how to win.

So, do you support a "win at all costs, even if it means lying", or do you simply wish to support a pandering liar?

Walker has some good points, but all it takes for someone like me to disregard him, is if he tells a voting block lies just to get the vote.

If he lies to Iowa, is he going to lie to me, or you?

Look beneath you, the fire is slowly being turned up.

And don't come back at me with your silly "neoconpubbie" crap, because first and foremost, I am not a republican.

I am a strict conservative, period.

I've yet to see a "candidate" that fits that definition more than more 70 percent.

It sure as hell ain't Jeb Bush, either.

Telling the truth about Walker and his two-faced bullshit with ethanol is not slander.

I heard his words, I watched them come out of his mouth, no one spoke for him...he pandered to Iowa and the corn lobby...period.

He should just quote Hussein re sodomite marriage and say he’s evolved on the issue.

Scott’s actions of passing conservative laws prove who he is a conservative who can get conservative things done and defeat the left. Words mean nothing.

This race is between Jeb bush and Scott Walker. you bash Walker and you are doing negative ads for Jeb and so campaigning for Jeb , liberal communist core, amnesty Jeb Bush. You like working for Jeb Bush?

You are going to give us Jeb then elizabeth warren or Hillary with your spinning of he said this blah blah . But that's your intention to get Jeb or hillary elected. We look at what he's done , his record.

SoConPubbie has been on the anti-Walker bandwagon for a while. He wants to start the circular firing squad that guarantees a Democrat victory. He says that he is for Ted Cruz, but wait to see what tune he sings when Cruz is nominated.

I just ignore him.

A Walker/Cruz ticket might be our best chance.

Yes there are a lot here that have that strategy of "a circular firing squad". Just look at this thread. amazing . these people that bash other conservatives are too dumb and brainwashed by the liberal media . no wonder the country is in trouble. they ‘ll deserve it when the democrats come to take away ALL their property and income. We don't deserve it and America doesn't.

As I posted the polls show this race is between Jeb and Scott Walker . so these bashers of Walker are helping Jeb Bush get the nomination and then Hillary clinton the election

If you are waiting to see me turn on Ted Cruz, you'll be waiting a long time, UNLESS, like Scott Walker, he starts to go wobbly on conservative policy positions.

Yes they their strategy is to start a circular firing squad by bashing other conservatives, using unrealistically high standards of purity to get it going. The conservatives “shoot” each other down leaving Jeb Bush standing and Hillary standing

The result Jeb Bush then Hillary as is their intention.

Words mean nothing.

There's your problem, right there.

Words do mean something. And stating otherwise is to pitch your tent right squarely in the middle of a liberal cesspool.

...you bash Walker and you are doing negative ads for Jeb and so campaigning for Jeb , liberal communist core, amnesty Jeb Bush. You like working for Jeb Bush?

Do you even read what you write? I've heard that idiot Carville parse better than that.

Nowhere did I indicate support for Bush nor did I "bash" Walker.

You remind me of those on the left that insist if I do not agree with obama, then, by God!, I am a racist.

I listen carefully to what candidates say, take into consideration the circumstances under which they say it and make a decision based on actual occurrences...not knee-jerk emotional responses, although I can do the knee-jerk emotional stuff when I've had crap shoved down my throat by the biggest "words mean nothing" asshole in the world for over 6 years.

You are going to give us Jeb then elizabeth warren or Hillary with your spinning of he said this blah blah .

Again, do you even read what you write? I'm not the "spinner", you are the one that insist words mean nothing, then attempt to perpetuate a myth that Walker stands on a golden pedestal.

But that's your intention to get Jeb or hillary elected.

Well, you're no great shakes at political theory, and you're even less capable of reading minds.

I have no "intention" of getting anyone elected.

I simply intend to go into the polling booth with as much knowledge about the candidates that is available...good or bad.

Yes you are working to get Bush elected .

The race for the nomination is between Jeb Bush and Walker

If you shoot Walker down then you leave Bush. You and others are running attack ads against walker. this is what campaign workers do run attack ads against the one who is running against their man.

Who do you want Jeb or Walker? Note there is no option “C”.

You twist some words I type . You give more importance to some words in some article about what Walker supposedly said than Walker's conservative record as Governor. That shows you are working to get Jeb Bush then and Hillary elected

But...but...but words mean nothing.

You said so!

You know, most folks, when they find themselves in a hole, they quit digging.

In fact, your whole line of argument is stupid and childishly repetitive.

We're done.

I can find more intellectually stimulating political conversation on the Sesame Street web site, than here with you.

Yeah, and the gope has the same strategy every election cycle.
They pick who the gop candidate will be. Throw in some conservatives to run during the primary.
At the eleventh hour go to drudge to trash the conservative.
I am not even sure the publicity on drudge works, who knows if the primary ballots are even counted correctly.
Then they try to throw a bone by picking someone conservative for vp. After doing everything in their power to stop the Conservative/tea party Candidate, they then blame them for the loss. LOL You just can’t make this stuff up.

For the last year I have been on many Conservative sites, and it has been all Cruz, all the way. The day after the Iowa summit, Drudge has a poll up with Walker at 50%+. Really?? Most of us figured out a while ago what the reason for these polls were. To influence, not inform.

Do I know if Scott Walker is being used by the gope to get Jeb in? No, I don’t, but I am tired of crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. Cruz or Palin is it for me. Someone who has taken on the gop establishment.
