I know there are a lot of Cruz enthusiasts out there and I understand this. Howver, pragmatic politics tells me he has absolutley no chance of winning the Republican nomination. I hope he doesn’t come out with a book, because, if he does that tells me his main interest will be selling the book. I also don’t think Huckabee has a chance and of course he is already hawking his book. Cruz makes good speeeches and is a good debater, but he has not record of conservative accomplishments. The guy to watch is Walker who has a proven record of accomplishments and is hated by the Democrats and the Unions.

But he has a record of Conservative stands in the Senate. His opposition to Obamacare. His stands against amnesty and Obama's executive orders. His filibuster of last year's spending bill. His opposition to Obama appointments. He may not have been successful but when it comes to taking a stand on conservative principles then Cruz's record takes second place to nobody.

The fact that Walker is the son of a Preacher won’t hurt him in Iowa either.

Re: Your Post #11: You make a very valid point in reference to Ted Cruz. I would say, however, that Walker is not the guy to “watch” but, maybe, the guy to “consider”. To “watch” someone sounds like they are an impostor. I know a lot of FReepers are “watching” Walker like he is the enemy because they think he is a closet Amnesty supporter. Not so.
