I noticed Walker wasn’t on the list, but losers like Jindal and Huckabee are.
The sentence in question used the word “like” so maybe there are others they have straw-polled. I should have included Rand Paul on my list, so he’ll be number 11.
I really want my number one, though. Session, Palin, Lee, and Martinez don’t seem to be taking any steps toward a run.
Pence is a better choice than Walker, imho. And Jindal, because his parents were here only as students, and he was conceived overseas by non-immigrants but born here. I’d really have to study that one.
Besides that, I think his conservatism is unquestioned.
I don’t think Walker has tried appealing to the evangelical organizations like Jindal, Huckabee and Perry have.
Also they may have already settled on Cruz, so the others are included just to present the appearance that they are casting a broad net. Or that they are using it as a hook to get Walker to pay more attention to them, or extract concessions from the candidates.
IOW probably a lot of options for what’s happening behind the scenes.
