Before you attack me for "piling on" on Gov. Scott Walker please actually read the article.

“hes too moderate”
Is that what they’re calling it these days? It’s why he’s avoided the “media scrum”. They’re playing on the same team.

“Is Scott Walker the GOP’s Barack Obama?”
Unlike a certain kenyan idiot, I doubt he’ll hide his college transcripts and birth certificate..

If Walker was the nominee, I would vote for him, but with some trepidation. He is buddies with Reince Priebus, not someone many of us here would call a conservative, so I have a feeling that Walker would probably morph into a moderate once in Washington. Cruz is still the best choice to me.

I quote
Scott Walker and his PRO-AMNESTY position:
Endorses path to citizenship for immigrant workers
Scott Walker distanced himself from House Republicans debating a new immigration bill by endorsing a path to citizenship for immigrant workers.Walker acknowledged that a substantial number of Wisconsin farms depend on migrant workers, some of them here illegally.
He also was sharply critical of how difficult the federal government makes it for those workers to come to this country. "If people want to come here and work hard and benefit, I don't care whether they come from Mexico or Ireland or Germany or Canada or South Africa or anywhere else," he said.
"I want them here."
The Democratic-led U.S. Senate passed an immigration bill last week that features a path to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants already in the U.S.
Many conservative House Republicans oppose the bill, viewing it as rewarding law-breakers.
He said as a gubernatorial candidate in 2010 that he would sign an Arizona-style bill, which would allow local police to stop suspected illegal immigrants.
Make it easier to enter the country legally
Walker said he is in favor of the Senate immigration bill--that features a path to citizenship--but called it a backward "Band-Aid" approach,
saying elected leaders should make it easier for people to enter the country and become legal citizens in the first place. "Not only do they need to fix things for people already here, or find some way to do it, there's got to be a larger way to fix the system in the first place," he said.
"Because if it wasn't so cumbersome, if there wasn't such a long wait, if it wasn't so difficult to get in, we wouldn't have the other problems that we have (with people living here illegally)," he said.
Walker's stance on immigration reform evolved over the years.
2010: stop suspected illegals; 2012: that's a distraction
Walker's stance on immigration reform evolved over the years.
He said as a gubernatorial candidate in 2010 that he would sign an Arizona-style bill, which would allow local police to stop suspected illegal immigrants, if he were elected.
Then, in December 2012, Walker said he no longer favored such a bill, telling reporters that such legislation would become a "huge distraction" from accomplishing his agenda for the state.
Today, Walker said he would support a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants under some circumstances.

Maybe it’s too early to decide on our Libertarian Candidate.

Walker is paying his cars shrewdly. He has enormous fire power and is sly enough to know when and how to use it. I love that he has everyone tied in knots trying to figure him out. I see some RR in him.

Is Scott Walker the GOP's Barack Obama?Except for the part about success with important executive responsibility, being a Christian and loving America, they really are very similar.

I would personally prefer Cruz, but I will gladly support Walker if it helps stop Bush!
