So much for the objectivity of USA Today. Of course, you won’t hear a peep from his slumbering campaign about this laughable situation…if he still has a campaign.

You should be commended for being his biggest supporter around here, you haven’t jumped in the hot tub for a Trumpgasm, and you’ve been respectful of people who don’t like Walker, but at some point Cruz is going to need you.

Evidently there was something illegal going on or there wouldn’t have been six convictions.

That aside, it is what has come from Walker’s own mouth that has gotten him into trouble, especially since the debate.

use of a private server, which had no place in a government office

You are implying something that is not true. I am calling you out on this. Present sources that show Walker or his staff had a private email server located on government property. If you cannot, then stop using this lie.

Remember, a wifi booster/repeater is not a private email server. Totally different thing.

Reporter signed a petition in 2011 to recall Walker from office?

He just broke the contract they are required to sign that applies to reporters, news anchors et al NEVER to disclose their political leanings.

I’ve never posted against Cruz (had to push back against some anti-Walker Cruz posters a few times) and I voted and supported Cruz in Texas.

But I believe that Walker is the guy we need. I hope you’ll be there when he needs you.

You also know that it was a router installed by an aide, that the allegation involved campaigning using gov’t resources, that a long drawn-out political investigation was conducted and the guilty were held to account, that Gov. Walker was exonerated and never even charged with any wrongdoing, that he fully cooperated with the investigation, and that this happened when he was the executive in charge of one COUNTY not as Secretary of State for an entire COUNTRY.

I guess you are too “conservative” to be bothered with little details like that.

Or do you have some other motive?

A separate router used in the office for doing campaign work which should not have been happening on the taxpayer’s clock was the problem. This was a simple problem to avoid, just don’t install a router for campaigning at work.

So what. Walker is a GOPe’er.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

This is why Walker is a failure. When a rouge state employee was ordering SWAT teams to innocent people’s houses, Walker didn’t say anything. When a rouge judge overturned the state constitution, he proclaimed it “the law of the land.” He’ll fight for the Chamber of Cronies against (some of) the unions, but he won’t fight for natural law and liberty against naked tyranny. He’s a one trick pony. He took on public sector unions. Great. Let’s make him head of the Labor Dept. What America needs as president is a champion of liberty who knows Who our liberty comes from. That’s Ted Cruz. Anyone else and we can’t return from the abyss.

The router that his assistant used was installed just feet from Walker’s desk. He communicated by email with his campaign using the router. How Clintonian of you to parse words.

So you are admitting that they did not use a private email server? Only a “private” wifi repeater?

And right there, is why the media is discredited.

Walker is hardly a Washington insider.

Is Walker looking for excuses as to why his campaign is failing?

About a few months ago I attended a convention in Milwaukee and Walker showed up and gave a speech and it was damn impressive.

I am not from the state so I had limited past exposure to Walker. On TV he looked kind of slow to me. But live he was very exciting.

So I assumed I misjudged him. But it seems on TV Walker comes out flat and lifeless and in live events he is very engaging. I would have no problem voting for Walker as president.

It was illegal and Walker was complicit as the emails showed. It was the router that opened the investigation, at least that stage of it. And, no, documents and statement by investigators say that Walker was not as cooperative as he should have been and never turned over much of what was requested. His lack of cooperation is what made them press on.

I’m sure you can also justify Walker’s attempt to repeal Wisconsin’s Open Records laws by slipping that into the budget deal just before he announced. Slick Willie did that in Arkansas, and we know he had a lot to hide.
