Des Moines — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, seeking to regain his standing in this key state in the presidential primary race, spent Monday visiting the Iowa State Fair, where he criticized Republicans in Congress for failing to repeal Obamacare and engaged in at times passionate exchanges with both supporters and critics.
Walker kicked off his visit by taking the stage at a traditional venue surrounded by hay bales and known as the "soap box." There he was greeted by a mix of cheers from supporters and boos from protesters.
The interactions were raucus at times, with protesters shouting criticisms at the governor for his policies.
"Again, unintimidated," Walker said at one point, invoking the title of his 2013 book in response to a protester. "I am not intimidated by you, sir, or anyone else out there. I will fight for the American people."
It was a moment that the campaign promoted after the event by posting a video on YouTube, and in interviews with reporters Walker said that the protesters were helping him spread his message by drawing attention to him and giving him creditibilty in the eyes of Republican primary voters.

Scott Walker, unintimidated again!
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
Stadium Scott can STFU.
The Trump effect.
How tall is he, 5’6”?
RINO Walker pays his miserable surrogates, like
RINO George Will and his wife, to attack Conservatives
rather than the Tyrant.
Don’t write foolishness.
You are foolish to think George Will is a conservative
OR that his wife is not working for Walker.
Walker’s spin is making me dizzy...

Say Trump wins the nomination and the election,
Who will serve in his administration. Per his
Supporters, all other potentials, if they are
Not in lockstep, and no matter how well they
Have served, are idiots and unworthy. The silly
demonization that goes on here is embarrassing.
Actually, George Will began his attacks on
FOX “News”, did he not?
If you have a point, cough it up.
Your response did not relate to anything I said.
He has faced much worse and won the day! :)
It looks like Scott is wearing the shirt Hillary was wore.
Ugh: “Hillary wore”
Big respect for Walker. Shredded that mess in Wisconsin.
Wow, its just like reading the local liberal rag!!
Here’s something right up the alley of the Walker attackers here. This is what us Badgers have lived with.
