“Kill the 1%!!!”

“We hate white men!!!”

The left never mobilizes resentment, right?

Scott Walker's 2016 strategy is simple: He will seek to defeat Hillary Clinton by mobilizing the resentment of working-class white voters, male and female. Walker will take his adversarial message to swing states such as Colorado, Florida, Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Virginia, and Wisconsin; and hope to mobilize a massive turnout by angry white voters. Walker is dangerous.

yeah yeah..heard it all before..blah blah..if you don't drink the lib Kool-Aid..you are dangerous..yawn!!! As if dems only ride unicorns and spread rainbows of love and charity during elections..

As Gov. Walker has explained many times, even if 100% of the Republicans in Wisconsin voted for him, he could not have won 3 elections in the past four years. So if he is “motivating resentment”, then his motivating the resentment of a lot of Independents, Democrats, and others as well.

But it’s not resentment they harbor, it’s a desire to have an actual leader who has the right values, understands the proper role of government, and doesn’t just make pretty speeches, but accomplishes what he says he will do.

That’s why both Republicans and non-Republicans have voted for him in the past, and why even more will do so in the future.

"......and too many Americans are content to "be dependent upon the government."

NOT what Walker said. This is what he said - and says over and over again:

Breitbart: Scott Walker: America Exceptional Because ‘We Celebrate Independence from Government, Not Our Dependence On It’

I think that Governor Walker is the adult of the group. He is very steady and just does his job. He is not showy and does not make scary statements just to be over the top. I think he will make a fine President. What I love is that he is doing well and hasn’t even announced yet. That is a good sign.

Good thing this report is fair and balanced. Basically, if you’re a conservative and believe in that old dusty constitution, you’re stark raving bonkers. Or something. Heaven forbid a working person, lower, middle, or higher, would vote for someone who values hard work as a means to a better life. Retired and proud to have worked for what I got.

If Rufus Bush were named in one of these ridiculous polls, he’d poll about the same as Jeb Bush. They’re only polling name recognition at this stage.

Note that this liberal activist sees the Left losing WHITE WOMEN to Walker.

Hillary (any Democrat running) cannot afford to lose them.

I was just thinking that-after app a year of “Ferguson, The Most Important City In The World, the left has the audacity to be “disturbed” by white people resentment? At least we don’t burn down the neighborhood, we go vote.

True. I actually know quite a few woman who do not want Hillary at all. To be honest, it does surprise me some but it appears that many woman don’t think Hillary is a great prospect as President.

The Ministry Of Propaganda works for The Cheap Labor Express. Since Scott Walker has come out on the side of the citizens and the rule of law, he is now dangerous.
Dangerous to the flow of cheap labor and cheap votes. The Uniparty will not stand for that.

They knew Walker was "dangerous" when he was elected governor. They've watched as the voters in Wisconsin (and around the country) stood with him; it's why the Left launched a multi-year secret John Doe witch hunt against him and and his supporters.

January 3, 2011 - Walker assumes Office of Governor of Wisconsin.

June 27, 2011: Walker REVOKES In-state Tuition For Undocumented Students Attending Univ And Colleges In Wisconsin "- On Sunday, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R) signed his two-year 2011-2013 budget, which included ending in-state tuition for undocumented students attending public universities and colleges. In-state tuition for undocumented students was approved two years ago by former Governor Jim Doyle (D) after the Hispanic community struggled for 10 years to pass it."...

Scott Walker is the only governor to revoke instate tuition for illegals.

Scott Walker is the only governor to survive a recall election.

"...because his stock-in-trade is mobilizing the resentment of working-class white voters."

As opposed to Obama's stock-in-trade mobilizing the resentment of the idle-class entitlement mob?
