Waxing Poetic or Poetic Justice...
You really are a good soldier, but Walker is toast. This pick confirms it.
Could be.
But Ted seems to be a stronger character, more firm on his goals.
Walker seemed to be that way too. What he has had to endure in Wisconsin shouldn’t have happened to his dog.
He should be President as a consolation prize. And John Chisholm should be imprisoned for the Stasi SOB he is.
But I think Walker is unsure of himself on the national stage and going with the flow is what will bolster him in his mind. Had hoped he would walk his own path.
Illegal immigration is the issue of this age. It will decide whether America exists or not as a sovereign country, or simply devolves into a Banana Republic complete with little tinhorn dictators wearing sunglasses and epaulets.
If a Republican presidential candidate cannot see that then he is either blind or craven. You can’t just dismiss it as No Big Deal and then waffle.
Had hoped that Walker would come down hard and stand firm. He may not understand it, but if he does not, Mexico will perceive him as weak and ruthlessly exploit that.
You cannot be weak in Latin America. If you are weak, you are dead.
And going along with the squeamish CoC types and the Bush family is going to make us all that way.
