Hillary Clinton Says Scott Walker Thinks He's 'Some Kind of Tough Guy on His Motorcycle'
ABC ^ | September 10, 2015 | Liz Kreutz

The campaign's kicked into high gear.

While stumping in Wisconsin, Hillary Clinton went directly after the state's Gov. Scott Walker, telling the crowd that the Republican presidential candidate thinks he’s “some kind of tough guy on his motorcycle.”

“It seems to me, just observing him, that Governor Walker thinks because he busts unions, staves universities, guts public education, demeans women, scapegoats teachers, nurses and firefighters, he is some kind of tough guy on his motorcycle. A real leader,” Clinton said Thursday night at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee during her first visit to Walker's home-state as a presidential candidate. "Well that is not leadership folks. Leadership means fighting for the people you represent.”

To crowds chanting “Hillary! Hillary!”, Clinton then quipped: “It looks like he just get his marching orders from the Koch Brothers and just goes down the list, whatever he tells them to do.”

The attack lines against Walker didn't stop there. The democratic presidential candidate also called out the Wisconsin governor for his record on women's health and rights, and questioned what union workers are supposed to do when they have a Governor who "wants to drive you into the ground.”

“What happened?” Clinton asked, after saying she’s always admired Wisconsin for its “progressive spirit.” ...

Hey Hillary,

Scott Walker is a nice honest law abiding middle class guy that keeps his word and fight corruption and greed of the public unions and others.

So enjoy your time in prison for trying to compromise the US national security and collecting foreign money so that you could sell us out.

You better make your peace with God or spend eternity with your evil buddies.

Trump loves the Kelo ruling, ...

That was my first real "whoa..." moment, considering "...life, liberty, and property..." are the big three. Further investigation yielded more reasons for concern.

I have been suspicious from the onset that someone who used 90% of the headlines might be a stalking horse, and there are a lot of 11th hour changes there. We have been played as an electorate before, and not so long ago.

Attack is fine, refreshing, even, but you have to make bloody sure before you loose the dogs of war that they are on your side.

Trump can negotiate, (The Art of the Deal), but it doesn't help if the deal leaves us out.

While it can be argued that Trump is beholden to no one and doesn't need their money, that can work out that his loyalties belong to the person with the checkbook--Donald Trump.

We don't need cronies, we don't need to be played by a player, we need someone who has a track record of Conservative stances on the issues, who is smart and articulate.

The lack of airtime they have been given is a side effect of the Trump effect, not their qualifications.

I like Cruz best so far, but would consider Walker as well.

Most of the graybeard bikers I know would not have voted Hillary in for street sweeper, much less POTUS. A pretty Conservative and freedom loving crew, overall.

Yeah, but now are they more likely to get to the polls and vote against her? Will they now begin educating their children and grandchildren about how the uninformed witch should never be President?

Bill and Hillary Clinton are the penicillin-resistant syphilis of our political system.

“To crowds chanting “Hillary! Hillary!””

The media lies.
Pictures will likely show instead of “crowds”; two people who both muttered the word Hillary.

Yep. Bikers vote. We are vocal about it, too.

As for the kids and grandkids, education includes far more than they will get in the PC schools, including why Hillary should never be POTUS. (A lot of Bikers are Vets, too. No love for Cankles, there, or her ol' man.)

I'm sure they will be yelling loud and long. It's what they get paid for.

what do you consider modern history, that in itself is debatable. The United States is a very young country and from it’s founding to now could easily be considered modern history. However when up until the last few election cycles has one party fielded so many candidates that they have no choice but to attack each other until the nomination? I blame the party way more than any one candidate.

I guess nobody told Shrillary that Walker is polling at 10th in the GOP presidential race. :-)

Hillary should ask AFL-CIO boss Rick Trumka if Walker is tough.

Feel free to ignore the fact that Trump is done helping and it’s great that he’s moved the immigration debate forward big time, but now he’s simply causing harm. He’s a Democrat.

Keep in mind that union members are anti-illegal immigration, so it’s no surprise that pro-union Trump is too. He’s a Democrat, still.

The border and illegal immigration was being focused on and hotly debated before Trump made his statement (despite his boasts to the contrary); he hasn’t helped the problem, he’s been like a hand grenade tossed into the mix - destroying our chance of getting control over of the border - causing more harm than good and solving nothing.

He’ll be in front of the cameras telling us what a great president Hillary will make, while attending her inauguration.
