I don’t fully trust Walker, so Cruz is my first choice. However, I don’t have a second choice I trust who is likely to run. Walker is definitely my #2, and I hope people won’t attack him. Build Cruz up instead of tearing Walker down.
name recognition is the name of the game these days and Walker has had more time to develop his name recognition.
I like Scott Walker. I like Ted Cruz. I think either one would make a much better President then anyone else currently out there, and far superior to what we have. We as Conservatives we should refrain from denigrating a fellow conservative because we happen to like another candidate. Sing the praises of the one you like by all means, but don’t bash the other. The Dem-Marxist’s feed on that.
Walker for governor of Wisconsin received much establishment help.
For national office, he should count on nil.
I’m not as keen on ethanol as I am on amnesty and RFRA; but given that Iowa has gone DemocRAT in 5 of the last 6 presidential elections, I wouldn’t be terribly sympathetic toward it were I a Republican candidate.
Walker’s sellout at the Iowa Ag Summit and the Liz Mair fiasco are what broke the deal for me.
Go Cruz!
NOT BUSH!!!
Here are my choices:
Walker and/or Cruz either order Prez/VP
Supposedly, he favors Ted Cruz. But I am not going to hold that against Ted Cruz. Cruz still remains my first choice.
But I'd be happy with Scott Walker as well.
” I want to see these guys debate throughout the summer and fall...”
Oh please NO!!! I dont think we can take another 4000 debates.
It wasn’t so much his stand on ethanol that was the problem, so much as how he handled it. He flipped on the issue right before the Iowa Ag Summit just to pander to local farmers.
It hints at a character problem.
To me he has demonstrated quite clearly that he is not a leader.
I do not see him attempting to lead or demonstrating leadership qualities on anything at all.
And by having a closed door meeting with the chamber of commerce, he has demonstrated that he is a politician.
AT this point I am not able to trust him, and I am further unable to see what leadership qualities he has that would make me want to vote for him as president.
Agree!
How was a “ping” to several people “denigrating” or “bashing” Scott Walker or anyone else? Do you think I work at Hot Air?
See my #33.
It will be interesting to see what impact the Paul announcement will have on tomorrow’s polling numbers. I don’t like him for POTUS, but one has to wonder if it will chip away at Cruz’s lead.

Good point. A choice between Walker and Cruz would make me wonder if I had been transported to a different planet.
Oh please NO!!! I dont think we can take another 4000 debates.

I agree!! It's particularly painful when they have a huge number of “candidates” spread across the stage looking, in a panoramic view, like an assemblage of midgets.
Let's hope so. From your lips to God's ear.
Cruz has been in the race for a little while....Walker (future candidate) hasn’t announced yet. Governors are people who make policy, advance an agenda, control their state National-guard, govern the state police, control the state school system.......senators vote on things that other people do.
Ted Cruz was the North American debating champion in both categories and the Princeton annual novice championship is named in his honor. Cruz was also a semi-finalist at the 1995 World Universities Debating Championship, making him Princeton’s highest-ranked debater at the championship.
