“Liking the cut of this guy’s jib more and more:....”
He’s developed the track record, NOT just the mouth.
Did he actually say “shove it”?
Nice post.
And this:
“Part of the media’s terrible coverage of national politics is the reliance on the personal: it matters to them who is saying it more than what is said.”
Is exactly true.
I like him. He is a fighter, which puts him head and shoulders above most of the rest.
Cruz/Walker.
I’ll vote for Walker.
I’l f*rt in the general direction of Jeb.
Be still my beating heart. Could some in a position to actually DO something finally be getting it?
Scott Walker is the real deal. It won't be long before we see the comparisons to Ronald Reagan.
But it may be longer before the Naysayers on FR wake up from their reflexive “Pro-Amnesty, GOPe, BigGov” smears. Eventually even those old cranky windbags will join the party too.
I like Cruz for sure.
I’ll listen to Walker.
Most of the rest are GOPe liberal noise makers.
I like Sarah too.
I'm not so dumb as to tie my wagon to a single name - principles matter, this is not a high school popularity contest. .
RE: Rule #1 NO SENATORS!!!!
Now, let’s not make that a hard and fast rule cast in stone.
Abraham Lincoln would not have been President if we insisted on following this rule.
Walker is an excellent strategist. He knows how to pick his battles, fight them well, and win. In a deeply divided state against formidable enemies.
Other than his soft belly on illegal immigration and opposition to a border wall, I like Walker.
I’m not seeing this as Cruz versus Walker, since they may be allies in the end. Walker isn’t perfect, but he is a fighter which lifts him above most of the crowd by itself. My hope is to see the two of them joined at the hip.
Leaders lead and fighters fight. Pretenders like Romney and Bush (and most of the rest of the field) wait by the phone while their flacks and hacks arrange the coronation.
Lincoln was never a Senator. He lost to Douglas. He was a one term Congressman and railroad lawyer who was politically active in the nascent Republican Party.
I would give a candidate a LOT of slack on a multitude of issues
if he would just FIGHT BACK against the left.
Seriously - pound them.
UNAPOLOGETICALLY TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT THEM.
His primary campaign should focus on energizing the GOP base.
Well enough said would say many
