It was because Walker was goaded into hiring an EXPENSIVE campaign manager who made several blunders, spent all his money, and now is handling Trump’s campaign. Need I say more?
Walker is no fool. He saw that he was deeply in debt and that his State needed him badly. He cut his losses and came home.
“Walker has been great for WI and is very popular, despite what his detractors on FRee Republic like to write”
You’re right about Walker as your governor, but he is still an ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICAN! He, like everyone else is entitled to his opinions about the current candidates for the GOP nomination. That said, he’s no different that sCruze, K-sick and the rest of the candidates with the exception of Donald Trump in that he has made his living, drawing a paycheck from the taxpayers, so he sees everything from the prism of a government “servant.” He needs to stay in Wisconsin and finish the job he started by including your cops and FFs on the list of those “public employees” who have had their unions teeth pulled. When he does that, I’ll consider him an acceptable candidate for the Presidency at some point in the future. The other thing that Wisconsin Republicans need to do is help Trump, when he becomes president rid the country of Paul Ryan and Rancid Penis! They are both disgraces that Wisconsin has foisted upon the country.
Is Walker term limited?
Walker was my first choice for president. He knows how to fight without getting dirty. If only........God help us.
Dittoes and Amen, brother!
Well you can stay in Californicatia and confine your opinions to that sorry state. I’m a native of CA and would never live there again. It has been ruined.
“I’m a native of CA and would never live there again. It has been ruined.”
Well, good for you! I hope you stay wherever you are and don’t come back. We need people who will stay and fight to retake California. I just wonder if there would have ever been an America if most of the people here at the fighting and founding were as squishy as you are? You can’t run away from what’s happening here, because without good people standing up for what’s right, right goes away. You’re just too lazy to take the challenge. You’d rather switch than fight. And you may well get away with moving away from the fight, but your kids probably won’t have that luxury! Thank the Lord that you were not in the majority when America was founded, because it would not have happened with people who think like you appear to do. so much for being “Affraid for the Republic!” With your “fear” and a buck, you can buy a cup of coffee, some places!
After initial leads in the polls, people realized he's not a dynamic speaker. his debate performances were blah and his foreign policy shortcomings began to show. his campaign staff (primarily Scott Wiley, the guy Trump hired) pissed away all his money on overbuilding a campaign staff and he ran out of money. He left the race unable to raise any money.
“Is Walker term limited?”.........nope.
I don’t recall Scott Walker ever being in a debate. I just think that he realized that he couldn’t do it without the support of the Establishment and that wasn’t going to happen.
I’m not squishy; I just recognized in 1972 that CA was already far gone, and my subsequent visits have confirmed it. I did not want to raise my kids in such a place, and it has been a good decision. I have 4 well educated, successful children all happily married to the opposite sex and 12 beautiful grandchildren as a result of my decision.
Everywhere I’ve lived I’ve worked for the good of the community and the church I have chosen. I am appalled at what has happened to the children of some of my CA friends and relatives.
In the mean time, the idiot voters of CA have re-elected Jerry Brown! Didn’t you get enough of Gov. Moonbeam the first time around?
Tell ya what. You go out there on the world wide Internet and see whether Walker participated in any debates and then get back to me. And stop all the establishment nonsense. His debate performances were not good, his foreign policy comments weren’t good and Scott Wiley and others spent too much money believing he was going to go farther than he did. You anti establishment folks are like people who claim to have seen a UFO. Walker wasn’t very dynamic in the stump, ran out of money and bailed.
Walker was and still is my first choice for President
every state in the union should have such an effective leader......instead, anybody other than Trump in their minds sucks dead donkeys. I understand the attraction to trump, but tossing every other republican into some sort of establishment bin assuming they're horrible is crap. I'd like some of them to have seen what we endured in Wisconsin under Jim Doyle and how stalwart Walker has den in the face of opposition.
