Uh-oh...
I’m for Cruz. Walker has never been an option for me, and I despise Jeb and Rubio.
I just call him George Scott Walker Bush.
Support of any kind for amnesty is a deal breaker.
Hopefully the governor will act decisively.
Here is more about Liz Mair:
Gov. Scott Walker hires GOP strategist Liz Mair team for online outreach "....The announcement is part of a hiring spree for Walker, who’s presidential campaign-in-waiting has brought on veteran strategist Rick Wiley as campaign manager and signed up former Mitt Romney strategists Danny O’Driscoll and Wells Griffith. Walker has also lined up influential activists in early-voting states such as Iowa and New Hampshire.
Mair has a history with Walker’s election machine: She led his online communication strategy during his recall election in 2012, when Democrats waged an aggressive, yet unsuccessful effort to remove Walker from office after he curbed the power of public sector unions in Wisconsin. Dan Blum, an associate with Mair’s group who also worked on the recall campaign, will also consult for the PAC. Blum, who lives in Cincinnati, Ohio, also formerly handled rapid response for Republican Sen. Rob Portman’s campaign.
During her career in political advocacy, Mair has consulted with a wide range of Republican campaigns, including possible Walker rivals: In 2008 she directed online communications for the Republican National Committee. Two years later, she led online outreach efforts for Carly Fiorinia’s Senate candidacy in California. She has also consulted with Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry."...
Scott Walker Shows How Pro-Life Presidential Candidates Can Avoid the Media’s Abortion Trap ".............In short, Scott Walker’s performance on Fox News Sunday was a brilliant example of how to handle the media when it comes to speaking about the life issue, particularly in high profile interview segments. It shows the kind of skill any pro-life candidate needs to be successful in the present anti-life media environment, and other pro-life candidates would do well to study Walker’s example. "
Dont they check these people out before they hire them? Of course I realize the left is looking for anything they can find on conservative candidates to hammer them with. Hell dont hand them the ammo...
If I could be called a one issue voter on anything, it is amnesty for illegals. The whole stinking bag of crap.
I absolutely refuse to vote for anyone that is not fully committed to securing the border and (novel thought) putting *American* citizens ahead of illegal aliens.
Makes for a pretty short list, doesn’t it? We are doomed.

| Ms. Mair and amnesty |
or | my money and my vote |
This is just the left trying to drive a wedge against the person they fear the most.
This is at least the third time this has been posted...
Its not amnesty if they get charged a ‘fee’ like $100 before they get US citizenship.
This is BS. This woman is not in a policy making position and her personal views have nothing to do with Walkers campaign or the way he would govern. It always amazes me how people get caught up in this kind of irrelevancy.
I’ll vote for the candidate and let him worry about his/her staffing. What’s gonna happen when Ted Cruz is found to have a staffer who is less than a pure conservative? It’s gonna happen and are you all gonna be flipping out over that too? Look, Scott Walker is flip-flopping all over amnesty and if he can’t convince us he’s going to be strong on the issue then that’s one thing, but I won’t base my decision based on his staff hires because all of these guys are gonna probably put experienced political people on the payroll, and a good many will have establishment ties.
Scott Walker is "sending a message."
I’m a big Walker fan but THIS concerns me.
More evidence that my gut feeling that Walker is Plan B for the amnesty whores at the RNC is correct.
He has very close ties to the Chairman, an amnesty whore and Paul Ryan, another amnesty whore.
He has expressed support previously for amnesty and now he’s populating his campaign with amnesty whores.
Not exactly in line with his claim of changing his mind about the invasion (it’s not immigration if it’s illegal aliens., they did not apply to be immigrants.)
This show very poor judgment on his part. This may have been a staffer hiring her without his knowledge. He better get a handle on things or he’s out before he begins.
As if I wasn’t already wary as hell about Walker. Any political operative that supports amnesty and fag-marriage is no different than a left-loon Dem in my book. Hence, any GOP-er that employs such a character is telegraphing all I need to know about said candidate.
I consider opposition to Amnesty an absolute, and I will not under any circumstances support a pro-Amnesty candidate. However, I do not consider this “misstep” relevant. It’s a communications staffer, not the candidate himself. Let’s stick to real issues. Walker and Cruz would be great presidents, with Cruz by far my top choice. Bush/Rubio/Christie/Romney would be terrible disasters for the country. I don’t care who is in charge of communications for any of them.
