Scott Walker to Announce Endorsement Tuesday Morning
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 3/28/16 | Reid J. Epstein

Posted on 03/28/2016 2:58:10 PM PDT by justlittleoleme

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker will announce his presidential endorsement Tuesday morning during a Milwaukee radio show appearance, his political office said Monday.

Mr. Walker signaled last week that he will endorse Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, though he has yet to make that news official. WTMJ radio host Charlie Sykes, on whose show Mr. Walker will appear, said he has not been told whom Mr. Walker will endorse.

“You would think I would, but I don’t,” Mr. Sykes said Monday.

Last week Mr. Walker made it clear that he would eventually back Mr. Cruz. He has long expressed his skepticism of Mr. Trump’s campaign and he said during a radio interview last Wednesday that Ohio Gov. John Kasich “cannot” win the nomination. Mr. Walker said then that he would time his endorsement for “maximum impact.”

I was just thinking that Walker could be planning to pull a Kasich and surprise the insiders.

Walker is at mid 30’s in support. Not sure why he has gotten so unpopular but there it is.

Saw a little blurb in passing regarding some “new” GOPe entries.

Don’t you suppose there would be a bunch of knotted nickers if The Big Endorsement is, in fact, for Ryan?

Second term blahs, most likely.

Walker is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Cheap Labor Express. So it’s Cruz.

Yes, Walker will be endorsing Cruz and it appears he and Fiorina will be campaigning for Ted in Wisconsin.

So much for the big National Enquirer “scandal” lol. Walker would not be endorsing Cruz if he thought there was anything to it, and I am sure Walker is pretty plugged in.

Fiorina and Walker “pimping” for Cruz has just synched my vote for Trump on April 5th. Both are looking for cabinet or administration positions should Cruz make it to POTUS (which I doubt he will)

So it’s going to be one of those fine days in which Trump gets bashed over and over with Fiorina there. Wonder if Beck will make a surprise appearance?

His ratings would be worse than Wolf Blitzer if he didn’t attack Trump.

Majority on his face book page telling him either not to endorse or don’t endorse Cruz. Some Trump supporters pushing for Trump too. A mixed bunch.

Walker is a fine governor, but I am a rock solid Trump guy.

You know we have this thing called a posting history, right? I mean, I can already see you were supporting Trump and obviously didn’t like Cruz anyway.

Walker has always projected winner to me. Not sure why he’s endorsing a loser who won 3 primaries. Oh well.

I agree endorsements rarely matter. For Cruz a Gov like Walker will tell the more centrist voters to ditch voting for Kasich and vote Cruz.

Note if you get a bunch of endorsements then the psychology of being on the winning team comes in to play.

In the end it helps a little, and I would rather have it then not have it.

Yes but still managed to only won 3 primaries. Endorsements to Cruz obviously mean little.
