So, now that Romney has begged off from a '16 presidential run....

[Busybody]

Well, since you asked so nicely.

unresponsive


show us

its OK

We'll wait

(but not for long)

 

[domroger]

Is that truly the first idea you had on the subject? Disappointing.

I asked because the same OP is on the GB ,with the number of alts on the site it was a genuine question .

 

[KingOrfeo]

Indicating the value of today's college education. He was smart enough to destroy the leftist agenda in Wisconsin, improve the state's economics, and put the public unions in their place.

Well, no, he didn't.

 

[Ulaven_Demorte]

Well, no, he didn't.

I laid waste to Vetteman's insistence on Walker's economic prowess twice already. He's undeterred by reality. the final link in your post destroys any notion that Walker has an economic foot to stand on.

 

[Boxlicker101]

Well, no, he didn't.

I note those job figures are as low as they are because they net jobs in private industry against civil service jobs. If you count only the former, Walker looks pretty good. He definitely looks better than Obama for the same period.

The last link, in particular, was written by a self-described "progressive" who is an advocate of the Marxist notion of Wealth Redistribution and appeared in a very liberal newspaper. If you compare some of the statements made therein, you will find they are strongly in disagreement with those in the other links.

"I've decided it is best to give other leaders in the party the opportunity."

With the presumptive nominee out of the race, I imagine a Hunger Games scenario among the field of Republican candidates as they attempt to out-do each other with rhetoric that will drag the entire Party further to the right.

Discuss.

The GOP is finding itself in the awkward position of being lead into 2016 by the social conservatives. Romney stepping aside is evidence of the capitulation to the TEA/Christian Coalition.

He has effectively said "Let them eat Bush".

Well, true to form the Wall Street faction of the Republican party has decided upon their candidate early. This year it will be Jeb Bush. Mitt Romney obviously got the message.

What's going to be very interesting is who will be his competitor from the whackadoodle faction.

• Paul Ryan? Not getting much traction.
• "Doctor" Ben Carson? A gaffe every week.
• Scott Walker? His disgust with minorities plays well in 98% white Wisconsin, not so well elsewhere.
• Bobby Jindal? He's trying very hard to be the "Christian" candidate.

I think we're going to see the usual bloodbath in LooneyTunesNation, even with fewer primaries for Vetty to pretend he's seen.

Parroting posts seems like an odd use of an alt. I repeated islandman's GB thread here on the Political Board to compare the type and number of responses each thread would get.

I'm still hoping for a Palin/Bachmann ticket. I would think every freaking comedian who speaks English, as well as Comedy Central and comedy clubs across the nation, not to mention producers of 'reality tv' shows would chip in a few bucks just to make sure it happened.

Oh geeze; a reality show based on a Palin/Bachmann campaign...
I need to get to Hollyweird and pitch that idea to TLC or E!.

And a fine Christian Bobby Jindal is, too.

“They want to use our freedoms to undermine that freedom in the first place,” Jindal said later of Muslim immigrants. “If they want to come here and they want to set up their own culture and values that’s not immigration, that’s really invasion if you’re honest about it,” he said.

Ryan has already said he won't be running.

Walker's standing with minorities isn't going to be any barrier to winning a Republican nomination. Besides, is he really any worse in that regard than all the rest of them?

Huckabee is the wackadoodle to watch for, especially now that he's openly campaigning as the candidate of rural/Southern/Christian grievance. If he can put together his old 2008 Iowa organization again, he could smother Walker in the cradle and then move on to the Dixie primaries.

Christie has been counting on his proximity to Wall Street to fuel a candidacy, but if he continues to look like dead meat in approval/disapproval polls, they're not going to just set fire to their money, not with Jeb around as an alternative for the "crazy but not too crazy" crowd.

The non-Hispanic white population in WI is about 83%, which is slightly higher than the nation as a whole. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin

Do you have any proof there is any actual disgust involved?

 

[Ulaven_Demorte]

Walker appeals almost exclusively to older staunchly conservative men. A demographic that the Republicans have tried to win with before, and failed miserably.

In a Presidential election, he hasn't a fucking chance in hell. He'll be spit roasted over the burning coals of Wisconsin's economic failures.

So republicans are Marxist now?

 

[KingOrfeo]

Scott Walker called out (by a teacher) for lying (about school-related matters) at the Iowa Freedom Summit.

Walker dodges evolution question. Also:

Walker also alluded to the expectation back in the United States that he would run for president, noting the media had described him as "bland" as a prospective candidate. "I'd rather be bland than stupid, or ignorant, or moronic," he said.

Don't worry, Governor. You are not bland. You are evil.

 

[dan_c00000]

the DUMZ are already scared

they are hammering him cause he never graduated College

Or because he's a complete and total fraud, racist, and proven liar. Either way.

You should know, busy body you piece of fucking shit, that the teahadist gov. of WI has an unemployment rate of 5.2%. Compare that to Democratic run Minnesota rate of 3.6% and your hero looks even more pathetic. Sorta like you.

 

[KingOrfeo]

So republicans are Marxist now?

As a matter of fact, there was a time when America's few Marxists tended to be Republicans. Lincoln appointed several to civil and military offices, and Karl Marx himself wrote a column for Horace Greely's New York Tribune. You can read the story in The S Word: A Short History of an American Tradition . . . Socialism, by John Nichols.

Here's a major strike against Jeb: He is the only Bush who was a card-carrying member of PNAC.

Rand Paul never graduated from college. (How he got into medical school I don't know.)

At least there is this to be said for Kasich. Anyone who pisses off the Tea Party can't be all bad.

 

[KingOrfeo]

Jeb’s clueless Bush privilege: The arrogant dynasty debacle he won’t get away with.

There’s something quaint about the way Jeb Bush is trying to get around critiquing or endorsing his big brother’s disastrous presidency, especially when it comes to the unpopular wars President George W. Bush began and mishandled. It’s almost as if the commoners are trying to get him to gossip about family matters, and voters will understand if he’s too much of a gentleman to do so.

Asked by the Washington Post’s Philip Rucker whether his foreign policy speech next week would deal with his brother’s wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Bush wouldn’t answer:

“I won’t talk about the past. I’ll talk about the future. If I’m in the process of considering the possibility of running, it’s not about re-litigating anything in the past. It’s about trying to create a set of ideas and principles that will help us move forward.”

Does Bush really think he’s going to get away with not talking about his brother’s wars – or his tax policies or the surplus he spent into a deficit or the economy that cratered on his watch? And how will the Florida governor square the fact that he rips President Obama regularly – in 2013 he called him a “complete and utter failure” – with his unwillingness to weigh in on the presidency that preceded Obama’s?

While Bush is talking about creating “a set of ideas and principles” for his foreign policy, I hope journalists remember that he was one of just 25 signatories to the original “statement of principles” issued by the hawkish Project for a New American Century — alongside Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Scooter Libby, Elliott Abrams, Norman Podhoretz, Frank Gaffney and other card-carrying neocons. He didn’t sign subsequent PNAC declarations, but as a first-term Florida governor and son of the last president, Bush’s name stood out on that founding document.
