Politico, May 30 2015:

“Sen. Marco Rubio will not participate in the Iowa Straw Poll, his campaign team confirmed Saturday.

The Florida senator and 2016 hopeful’s decision marks the latest blow to the August event long considered a staple on the Republican road to the presidential nomination. Jeb Bush, Sen. Lindsey Graham and Mike Huckabee have all said they won’t participate this cycle. Many, including Gov. Scott Walker and Sen. Rand Paul, have yet to signal if they will attend.”...

“We Play to Win”

Ever think you’d hear that from the Spineless Grifter gang in D.C.?

Carly is a loser and a distraction. Hopefully, he was just being polite.

A distraction to whom or what? I’m not a supporter of Carly but if you are going to make a dumbass statement like that at least make a feeble attempt to substantiate it.

My guess is that Walker likes have Fiorina do the attacks on Clinton for the time being. Also, that he may think he is better off having a whole of other candidates in the race who don’t steal votes from him, and let Carson, Fiorina, Graham, Christie, Jindal, Perry, Santorum, etc. steal votes from each other. Cruz and Rubio (and to some degree Jeb Bush dig into his vote totals) while the others likely take from each other.

The Iowa/Ames Straw Poll was always just a party. They only started discouraging multiple votes and bused-in non-residents the last three cycles.

The 2007 was a political junkie’s fiasco, with most candidates skipping it and Ron Paul spinning conspiracy theories about Diebold voting machines.

The 2011 fleeced the candidates pretty good, but left a bad taste the Iowa Straw Poll is trying to overcome. Romney didn’t bother being there, and eventual second place national delegate finisher (and Iowa Caucus winner) Santorum came in fourth.

This is why, if Cruz doesn't nab the nomination, I'll gladly vote for Walker. This is how Conservatives win. Keep it classy. Give your Conservative competitors the respect they are due, and focus on taking down the dems.

Rand Paul and Jeb Biush are maggots.

At one time Carly supported the Dream Act (aka amnesty for illegal aliens).

Does she still support amnesty for illegal aliens?

If so, she is (electorally) a non-starter...

...and that is simply that!
