I appreciate your input.

HOWEVER, the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" have "WARMED UP" to Walker.
BUT, the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" are still"AT WAR" with TED CRUZ.
SO ... Walker has SOLD OUT to the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS".

It's a matter of TRUST.

I TRUST TED CRUZ.
I do NOT TRUST Walker.

It's just that simple !

You might well be right.

I think we need more data from Walker to judge but I do not discount your suspicions because we have had our hearts broken by so many others.

It appears that not all of the Republican establishment has cut a deal with Scott Walker on immigration:

“I thought that was a very responsible and commonsense approach,” Sessions told msnbc when asked about Walker’s comments. “It’s unthinkable we admit a million people a year lawfully and nobody’s even willing to discuss whether that’s the right number and if we have within it the right makeup of skills and education levels,” he added.

Concededly, most of the objections allegedly coming from the "establishment" come from John McCain who is pushing Graham for president and who in any case is an entirely unreliable source for anything.

If Walker has flip-flopped, and that is not entirely clear, will he stay flopped? If we can't have Cruz, can we accept Walker? I see no other better alternative, but we are not at this stage of resorting to alternatives for Cruz yet.
