WISCONSIN GOVERNOR DEALS WITH RUMORS OF PRESIDENTIAL RETREAT …  

|| By FITSNEWS || Another day, another rumor of a “Republican” presidential campaign on life support …

Yesterday it was former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania (read our report on that here), today it’s Wisconsin governor Scott Walker.

Walker has polled as high as 17 percent nationally during this race, but is currently receiving the support of only three percent of GOP voters nationally according to the latest composite data from Real Clear Politics.

He’s also the subject of numerous national stories questioning his ongoing viability …

In early-voting South Carolina, Walker was one of the early frontrunners – but a flurry of recent surveys has him polling below four percent in the “First in the South” primary.

Like many of the other establishment candidates, he’s been drowned out by the rise of Donald Trump.  He’s also been hurt by taking certain establishment positions …

Anyway, numerous 2016 campaigns have been floating the rumor that Walker is making “deep cuts” to his operation in South Carolina.

Sources close to Walker’s campaign tell us those rumors are false.

“Tough times for sure but mission hasn’t changed at this point,” one Walker source told us.

So far only one candidate – former Texas governor Rick Perry – has dropped out of the 2016 race (and thank God for that).

We are clearly in the midst of the first major “winnowing” stage of the race, though …

Like Kasich he was a good governor.You only have a ‘small’ window to introduce yourself to the American people and although a good and decent man that defeated not ONLY the unions but Obama and the DNC, Walker (and Kasich)never connected on the ONLY issue that matters in 2016…

IMMIGRATION…why Rubio and Bush won’t be nominees.I would support Rubio however his Gang of 8 participation will doom him.

Trump has tied immigration (in a way voters can understand) to the economy,crime,trade and foreign policy. Not a damn thing or debate will change that.

Walker is much smarter than Obama. Obama was able to navigate law school because he was a well known social agitator on campus and black.

That is why they hide his grades.

Not an attorney.I am however an arbiter. :)

Another reason why the Democrat Party can’t be trusted:

“President Obama’s senior adviser Valerie Jarrett met with Black Lives Matter activists yesterday at the White House, the latest sign that the Obama administration is involved with the controversial protest group.

Jarrett met with three organizers for Campaign Zero. DeRay Mckesson, Brittany Packnett, and Johnetta Elzie as well as Phil Agnew of the Dream Defenders and Jamye Wooten, an organizer for Baltimore United for Change were there, according to a senior White House official who confirmed the visit to Buzzfeed.

After the meeting, Packnett tweeted a selfie with Jarrett thanking her for engaging the movement.”

Obamacare is finished in 2017.Piece by piece it will be taken apart.Wait until the MAJOR parts kick in. There will be a revolt in this country.

It will eventually collapse on its own.SCOTUS knew that and why they let it stand for congress to clean up the mess.

vicupstate September 18, 2015 at 1:05 pm

Then why was Obamacare hardly even mentioned in a three-hour debate?

The GOP has no alternative, so they have no plans to repeal it.

I have posted this before, but it bears repeating. When Fiorina was fired by the HP Board of Directors, Dow Jones Market Watch reported: “HP directors had come to the conclusion that Fiorina simply was incapable of running the bigger, heftier corporate behemoth.” She wasn’t fired, however, until she had eliminated 18,000 jobs and cut shareholders’ equity by 50%. But she left with a $21 million “golden parachute.” How Republican!

Thank You.
Yes, Obama’s approval ratings and all his major pieces of work(ObamaCare, Iran treaty, the economy. etc.) are underwater and will stay that way until the 2016 election.
Obama and the Democrats are thanking their lucky stars that Trump and the Republicans are keeping the press attention off of him and the horrible job he is doing. But, he is certainly on the minds of the general elelectorate, and not in a good way.
As Obama’s mentor(Reverend Wright) once said, ” The chickens are coming home to roost.”

Last night I asked Trump about kicking out the Muslims, including that fake in the White House. But that’s not all that concerns me. First off, Carly looks a little Middle Eastern to me, I think she needs to go. And what about those Frenchy French slim-balls up there in Quebec. They come down into New Hampshire and want all this snotty food, an fawn grasse crap. I want them stopped too. And I want to see Jeb’s wife’s Green Card and certificate of citizenship. I’m not falling for that again. And I don’t think Rubio graduated from law school, and I want to see his wife’s papers – I hear she’s the daughter of a Colombian cartel leader.
