I'm not as strong for Walker as I am for Kasich, but he's another pragmatic conservative who knows how to attract independents and could run a strong general election race if he can raise the money...
And he's also got some cred with the base types because of the way he stood up to the public sector unions, and survived their repeated attempts to bring him down...
And he accomplished this in a purple state, which speaks well of his political skills...
There's no question that the GOP has a much stronger field to pick a candidate from then we did the last time around...(of course we could scarcely have had a weaker one; when Mitt Romney is the class of the field you need a new field...)
I was also very happy to see that the RNC has reduced the number of candidate debates from the absurd 22 we had the last time around to nine...(personally I think six would have been more than adequate...)
It'll be interesting to see how many debates the Democrats have...
I don't imagine Her Royal Clintoness will provide a free publicity platform for Bernie Sanders and Jim Webb very often...
