Trump doesn't think so...

He's right.

Walker can't get Wisconsin right.

Trump doesn't speak with forked tongue.

Refreshing.

Walker is a rube.

Cruz is the one to keep an eye on. He's a smart, dangerous bastard.

My top two are Cruz and Walker, in that order. I could stomach most of the rest of them. But I will vote third party if Bush is the GOP nominee.

It's settled then.   You are a radical wacko.  Certainly can't play well with normal folks.

It's probably just because you "want to see some sad hippies" rather than a real belief in the societal efficacy of the far right.

My bet is on Walker. He's just crazy enough for what the GOP Primary race has become.

But I really do hope that Bush wins and the crazies all vote for Trump.
Then Clinton wins easily with only 45% of the vote and freedom is safe in America for another 8 years or more.

That's exactly what I would do. Though the country would continue it's downward slide, it wouldn't be as bad as it has been under the PiC. That would be near impossible. And, while waiting for the GOP to learn its lesson (if Bush is nominated), I will be financially enriched for another 4 years, while watching progs become ever more impoverished. I can live with that.

Go for it.
If A Democrat wins, I'll feel safe enough to retire.

If a Republican wins, I'll need to work a little longer to scrape together enough to weather the shitstorm that always brings.

As you have survived the shit storms created by this nincompoop, you should have no problem with a good president.

Keep an eye on my man Bernie. I know he's a long shot, but it's still pre-game.

We really don't need Hillary who is another politician entangled in the money web.

If a republican wins, I'm going to cash out on my house while the numbers are high, then buy when the economy crumbles in four or so years.

The economy was poor after Reagan and disastrous after Bush II and all of the current Republican candidates will initiate the same failed policy.

Trump is too smart to implement bad economic policy, that is why he is fighting back against Scott Walker and his policies.

He knows about evolution all right. He's smart enough to play those country folks like a blue grass fiddle.

He wants to evolve himself into the white house.

Walker blows it in Philly.

- Cuts in line for a cheesesteak
- Leaves trash on table

Both taboos up there.

Pabst seems to be returning to Milwaukee.  

Bush is doing very well at fundraising

Walker is the pet of union-bashers and is closely tied to the conservative outfit that writes generic legislation for state legislatures.  Once Trump is over, he's likely to do well.

Rubio seems to be getting pushed aside.

Paul seems to have been pushed aside

Carson, too.  

Perry's views on Wall Street seem similar to those of Warren and Sanders.

For Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, there's something awkward about the Harley-Davidson motorcycles that he has been posing on at presidential campaign stops: each one bears a sticker on its frame that reads "Union made in the USA."

Walker has made the iconic American brand a centerpiece of his campaign kick-off tour this month, visiting four dealerships and sometimes showing off his own 2003 Harley Road King as he seeks to harness its appeal to older white male voters.

But there is another side to Harley that the Republican candidate has been less vocal about - it is a leading example of a successful company that has a strong relationship with labor unions.

Walker, by contrast, has made his union-busting credentials the foundation of his White House bid, touting it as the prime example of his leadership success and as evidence of how he can defeat powerful vested interests and even foreign enemies.

It's not clear how he can reconcile his love of the powerful, deep-rumbling bikes known as "hogs" with the strong union loyalties of those who build them.

Some of the people who build Harleys - more than a thousand of whom are unionized workers in Wisconsin - are fuming over Walker's prominent use of the bikes in his campaign.

"He's trying to make a name for himself by saying 'I took on 100,000 union workers' - and he's on our bikes," said Andy Voelzke, 57, who works at Harley's plant just outside Milwaukee and is a member of the United Steelworkers union.

"It's just such a contradiction."


... contradiction?

yeah, it's called hypocrisy.

A great workforce, union proud, producing a great American product.

Walker would love to bust it up and hire $9.00 per/hour schlubs building junk.

Neil Cavuto and Stuart Varney would be all smiles.
