While I'm sure that we can all be thankful to Gov Walker for standing up to the government employee unions in Wisconsin, his insider status has made him utterly irrelevant in this election cycle.

And where was Walker’s admonitions of the “establishment” during the debate?

I guess, but I am surprised that his support has never materialized. He hit his high water mark the day he announced. Weird.

Could not agree more. Scotty is the GOPe default candidate for when Jebbie crashes and burns. Unfortunately for the establishment they are both crashing and burning. Trump has staked out all the relevant talking points and nobody is going to get the bullhorn away from him.

McConnnell Aide Joins Walker Team

Gov. Scott Walker's political group is building its policy team by hiring a top aide to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Our American Revivial has hired Andrew Bremberg to serve as its policy director, a spokeswoman for the group said Friday.

Bremberg, who had been serving as McConnell's policy advisor and counsel on nominations, will oversee the development of domestic and foreign policy for Walker's group as the Republican governor considers his likely 2016 president


Walker is so disgusted with McConnell he hires his staff.

The ability to write in English must not be a requirement for the Hill.

Walker evidently does not understand that Obamacare cannot be repealed while Obama is in office for the following simple reason.

Given that Obama will veto any bill that dares to repeal Obamacare, probably neither House of Congress will have the constitutionally required 2/3 majority vote (1.7.2) needed to override such a vote.

And incumbent RINOs in both Houses were probably very much aware that they wouldn’t be able to repeal Obamacare, but nonetheless played on the ignorance of low-information patriots to win their votes and get themselves reelected by promising to repeal Obamacare.

“Where is vote to repeal ObamaCare?”

He just has to ask his handlers. They had the Republicans in Congress vote 50 times to defund it, but then made sure none of the votes meant anything.

Dayspring and others REALLY need to keep him better informed regarding the stunts the Republican Leadership does to try to fool their “Low-Information Voters” as they call us.

See, had he said all this two months ago he might be leading. But a leader leads and is in front on the issues.

He signed ultra-sound bills and lots of other pro-life legislation. Pretty harsh words for someone who has done a lot for the pro-life movement, more than anyone else except other governors.

We could always pull a Louise Slaughter and just deem we have the votes to kill it.

Relevance? Walker has far more than Trump.Yes,Trump has very worthwhile things to say but as a Presidential *candidate* he's a joke.

Walker is still up near the top for me, perhaps second, after Cruz. Trump, on the other hand, is down near the bottom of the 17, maybe tied with Pataki for last.

Walkers “ME TOO” approach just isn’t going to work.

I refuse to bash any Republican, except Bush perhaps. I have those that I prefer (Cruz at the top, for now). Honestly, I think its rather silly to have "my guy". I don't go for that hero worship, savior thing, not with mortal men. I simply have my preference, but I am ready to support most of them, depending on what they show me as we go along this route.

As well, I refuse to "bash" any supporters of other candidates, as long as they don't act like d*cks. I know one thing about all my fellow Freepers, they love this Country as much as I do, and want to see her succeed as much I. We all understand the perils that face us if the socialists get another chance. I don't know if the Republic can survive what remains of Obama's tenure, but I know for certain, that it will NOT, if any of the current Democrats make it to the Presidency in 2016.

Walker’s been charged by the GOPe to try to become the “conservative alternative” once the field narrows down to two. The success of Trump and Cruz and even Carson in the polls is forcing him to up his campaign conservative rhetoric.
