MILWAUKEE — Scott Walker was gone. Dropped out. And in the spring of his senior year.
In 1990, that news stunned his friends at Marquette University. Walker, the campus’s suit-wearing, Reagan-loving politico — who enjoyed the place so much that he had run for student body president — had left without graduating.

Big deal. Obama is an idiot and that didn’t seem to matter to moronic American voters.
Give me common sense any day. A simple understanding of the Constitution, without penumbras, whatever that means, is all that is needed.
Unfortunately some in here will buy those rumors hook line and sinker
and he dirtied his diaper
Sherry Arden, president and publisher of Morrow, never had a college degree.
Many who have college degrees are nothing but educated idiots
I don’t think, however, I’d rather be ruled by the first 200 names in the MADISON phone book—they are all kooks.
Yea, I missed the articles on Obama’s schooling, passports, citizenships, etc.
I do not rule him out at a candidate, “BUT” if he does not tell the 100% truth about his past, his future may not be very successful.
I would, however, take those from the phone book in my little town of about 15,000 in western VA - in a county that voted 2 to 1 for Romney over Obama. ;)
That probably depends on how his answer comes across. If it's genuine and sincere, and he can segue from that to his accomplishments as governor, it might be able to work for him.
But if he comes off as arrogant, as if he was somehow above college, maybe not as much. Despite many of the leftist liberal arts degree programs out there, most people have to put up with crap in their jobs and everyday life. While I didn't agree with many of my professors and instructors in college from a political point of view, I did the work, and I got out of that class. This is life. You don't always have the best manager, you don't always have the best customers or project team, but you still have to make it work sometimes. You can't just say (very often), "I'm sick of your garbage, and I don't want to work with you any more!"
Yeah, I know he’d been through the wringer in Wisconsin. I think the national media is now going to really try and pick the guy apart. For instance, I saw TWO stories on Yahoo this morning about how Walker “ducked” questions about...wait for it...Evolution. With all that’s going on in the world, and with the sorry state of the country right now, the media are apparently trying to paint Walker as some anti-science, religious zealot. So typical.
Yet still crickets on obies college info.
So what? So much the better.

To me, it’s not about not having a college degree, its just sort of weird, that 5 months and a few classes short of graduation, after putting in all of that time at a pretty good school, he just walks away without graduating? My old man would beat me for a week.
I really don’t know anything about Walker, but has he ever addressed this? Honest inquiry- not a jab at the man. Wonderinq
Guys if this is the best stuff they can come up with, Walker is in good shape. This article floats every weak sauce anti-Walker narrative. And they’re still forced to admit that he was basically known as a clean cut nice guy.
College is overrated. Look at all the Harvard, Yale, and other Ivy Leaguers who are f***ing up the country!
Funny. *I* didn’t make it through college, yet I have NO problem reading, understanding and following the less than 4543 words that make up the Constitution.
Hell, I’d say it’s the fact that I DIDN’T graduate, that allows me to understand simple snippets, such as, ‘...shall not be infringed’, ‘Congress shall make no Law...’, ‘...suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;...’ and many, MANY more
