Yes, Rush is readable. I think the Wisconsin miracle Walker pulled off has earned the respect of Rush and many others, but he will give Cruz supportive kudos, I believe.
We have such a deep bench of decent, talented people, who after this Obama collapse. look good even to democrats.
I think that Walker is the only real challenge to Cruz. IMO it is one or the other for a national ticket. I want Cruz but Walker is just as acceptable. Cruz is a hard charger and so tuned in to the machinations of the left that he can deal with them in whatever game they play. Walker is more localized but a quick learner and experienced in dealing with entrenched unionists and bureaucrats in general. Walker and Cruz are both good men and good candidates and time will work it out.
