George Will’s wife is deeply saddened.

He kind of comes across as dull and in a few years will be the balding high school math teacher type. Glad he won and he needs to stay where he is. Pick up a U.S. Senate seat there in a few years. He’s toast nationally.

Perry and Christie need to go away as well. Jindal, too. They aren’t going anywhere and are burning money.

I like Walker and I like what he did in Wisconsin and I would support him if he got the nomination but I honestly don’t see him winning against the global communist machine that is the DNC+media+foreign-money+massive-voter-fraud.

The only question would he fail like McCain failed or would he fail bigger, like Romney failed.

We need some one with a real chance of going up against the tsunami of hate and lies that the DNC will launch and win.

I know Walker did it in Wisconsin; I just don’t see him doing it nationally.

And besides all that, Trump is right on immigration. Walker is not. And that’s a big difference.

Walker is HATED because of George Will and his wife.
They all belong in Hell.

I like Walker, but he is not my top choice. If he were the Republican nominee, I would have no problem pulling the lever for him.

That being said, I don’t believe he will be the nominee. He has done a great job crushing the unions in Wisconsin. I would love to see him take that nationally. Perhaps the best way is as Secretary of Labor.

People who are sincere and honest, who build honest relationships often appear dull and uninteresting. Those who have charisma are often sociopaths. That charisma and eye contact is a body language promise of a genuine, personal relationship. It’s a promise they almost never keep. The uncharismatic acting guy does not send out those body language signals because he already has his time taken up by real relationships and he can’t afford another, especially a relationship with thousands he meets and asks for votes. Bill Clinton is charismatic, and about as shallow as a fingernail. He promises much and makes people feel special but probably has no real relationships.

I wouldn’t give up on him yet, hopefully he’s got the fortitude to hang in there and not fold.

Right now Trump is catching the flak, and I think that’s fine.

Walker risks ending up in the same boat as Jindal did a few years ago - being good at your job, doing conservative things, and beating the left are far, far less important than being energetic and charismatic. Personality trumps ability in American politics.

If Scott Walker had the balls to put out an immigration plan months ago like Trump just did, he would be flying high today. Of course the big money donors would have nothing to do with him.

He’ll have his moment after some debate (like Carly’s just had hers) and probably to some degree in Iowa. Let’s hope he and Kasich split the vote of voters who don’t see beyond religion, however—so neither can get momentum out of there.

If this is true . . what a shame! Scott Walker is the real deal. He has been through the fires of partisan politics and survived with grace and flair. Their is over 14 months until the election. I wouldn’t get too excited about these “beauty” polls now! I personally favor a Cruz/Walker ticker (Or vise-versa, if necessary). I give 5 republican candidates a chance. The problematic one is Dr. Ben Carson. One of the most decent thoughtful human beings on the planet. Can he be Presidential? Can he like frozen water break the Washington boulder of corruption?
