A guy like Walker is (I think) what I’m looking for in a chief executive.

Executive experience, proven track record at accomplishing conservative goals, good orator, good educator, good manager, persistent, calm under fire.

I don’t know enough yet about his conservative ideology, but so far so good.

In a few years though. Not 2012.

That's just it, you 'think'. The guy's been in office a month. Let's see what he does with it for an extended period before we hand him the keys to the Oval Office.

Many wanted to jump on a Colin Powell bandwagon a few years ago. After his stint as SoS, they are glad they didn't.

Many wanted to jump on a Condi Rice bandwagon. After she left the White House and reveals some of her true character/positions, they are glad they didn't.

Many wanted to jump on a Fred Thompson bandwagon. After his anemic short run in 2008, many fell off. Others were glad they didn't.

Jumping on bandwagons based on first impressions can be disasterous. For example, many have been wanting Haley Barbour to run as the savior of the Party. After his interview on FoxNews recently, he demonstrated that he was more politician than statesman, as he wiggled around responses to questions.

Many jumped on the Obama Hope and Change bandwagon, and many of those are regretting it.

In 4-8 years, after he has our state on track, we will give him to the country. He needs more seasoning, but already has far more executive experience than Obama.
