I know what you are saying. But if you look at results only, Walker has been able to actually get them. Cruz has tried and tried hard but not a thing has been passed with his name on it. I would give him an A+ for effort. The thing with being President is being able to convince others of passing your agenda. Walker has been able to do this with Democrats and Republicans. Cruz is having difficulty getting the Republicans to side with his agenda much less the Democrats. That is a problem don’t you think?

I understand that opinion naps.

However, you run the risk of comparing apples to oranges when comparing the results of actions of a Governor and a Senator.

There is no one above a Governor to hinder or limit your actions. With a Senator, especially in the US Senate, you have the treacherous leadership of McConnell, coupled with the GOP-E which absolutely hates Cruz and what he stands for.

Couple that with a treacherous leadership in the house, led by Boehner, which also absolutely hates Cruz and what he stands for, and the ability of any Conservative Tea-Party Senator to get a bill through Congress is almost impossible.

Couple that with the fact that the Senate, until just recently, was led by Harry Reid, and it is impossible to get any type of legislation through with your name on it.

As you say, Cruz gets an A+ for effort, for doing everything he possibly could to get the job done.

This is why the comparison is not a good one. Governor Walker had a legislature that was more or less compliant. So yes, in terms of getting bills past, Walker wins, but the comparison is not a good one as it leaves out all the factors involved.

It’s the RINOS who refuse to side with him. Conservatives know this. Do you?
