Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin has concluded he no longer has a path to the Republican presidential nomination and plans to drop out of the 2016 campaign, according to three Republicans familiar with his decision, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Mr. Walker called a news conference in Madison at 6 p.m. Eastern time.

Yet you can’t dispute my proven assertions that Walker is a RINO...and if you wanted the final proof...read his statement today as he ended his weaksauce campaign...he sides with the establishement.

Goodnight RINO’s :)

It wasn’t that Walkers campaign was weak at all. It was that it was not designed for him to win. It is not his “Turn” It was supposed to be Jebito’s “Turn” Walker’s campaign was designed to help Jeb get the nomination as is everybody else with the donor class behind them. The donor class colludes.

Trump blew the donor class plans to hell, and I raise a glass to “HONEY BADGER” Trump. Well done so far and God speed sir. Take on these traitors and leave them tarred feathered and quivering in the public square. We will take care of running them out of town on a rail.

“There was little passion compared to Carly’s Planned Parenthood comment”.

No one is more pro-life than I am, but the description in the video Fiorina was talking was misleading. She saw no Planned Parenthood video with a baby laying on a table that had survived an abortion. She may have seen the images somewhere, but they were not in the Center for Medical Progress’s Planned Parenthood tapes. She’s been called out on this discrepancy and tap dances around the truth. She was also pro-abortion when she was CEO of HP, who happen to be one of the biggest donors to Planned Parenthood and have been for years.

I don’t trust Fiorina as far as I can throw her. No woman that has gotten fired from every job she ever had deserves to be considered for the highest office in the land.

The problem with that is that he’s on record as being for amnesty/pathway to citizenship (hence abbreviated as A/PTC) two years ago. Then he was against A/PTC. Then he said he supported A/PTC at a fundraiser. On video.

Whoops.

See the problem? Record of actions or not, his record of statements is more FOR A/PTC than against it.

So, three out of the five people that supported him? :P

No, I want to see Krispy Kreme right on Walker’s heels. I still remember when Rand Paul pointed out when Krispy would seek out a warrant while an attorney, but wouldn’t seek out a warrant to spy on Americans. Someone like that must be kept out of the white hut.

I wish ALL of our side would concentrate on the likes of Hillary and Obama. They don’t/won’t do that for some reason. Oh well...he’s out. It would be nice if a few more of them would quit masturbating and drop out soon. At one point Scott Walker seemed like a very good choice, but circumstances change very quickly in politics, and one can’t cry over spilled Wisconsin beverage. It will be interesting to see how all this shakes out eventually. And interesting, like the Chinese curse, isn’t always fun to be involved in.

That may be true, but her support is the kiss of death - just as it was with Perry last time. I’ve told her so.

Examine your premise’s inverse.

Faulkner may prove handy.

I’ll be the first to admit sometimes my first choice wasn’t the wisest decision.

Maybe we should hang out and observe the continuing bonfire of the vanities?
