And back on the thread's topic; it looks like New Hampshire has "evolved", wants Scott Walker:
NH Primary Poll: 85% Believe Scott Walker Qualified to Be POTUS Without College Degree
by Tony Lee19 Feb 2015
An overwhelming majority of potential New Hampshire voters believe Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) is plenty qualified to be president even without a college degree.
According to an NH1 New Hampshire poll, “85 percent of NH residents likely to vote in next year’s presidential election say it doesn’t matter that Walker didn’t graduate college, and that he’s qualified to be the next president.” The poll found that “fifteen percent of those
questioned say the lack of a college degree should disqualify Walker from serving in the White House.”
As NH1 noted, Walker, who has been leading in some early polls in Iowa and New Hampshire, “left Marquette University in the spring of his senior year to start a job with the American Red Cross,” and “if elected to the White House, he’d be the first president without a bachelor’s degree in more than 60 years.”
Insecure observers, pundits, and journalists in the permanent political class who, in a shallow manner, obsess about where people went to school, though, keep bringing up the issue. So have some Democrats. After former Vermont Governor Howard Dean (D) questioned “how well educated” Walker was last week on MSNBC, Walker blasted the “elitist” attitudes of his critics.
In an interview, Walker said he went to “college not only to get an education” but to ultimately get a job and jumped at the Red Cross job opportunity. He said he meant to go back to school but got married, had children and before he knew it all of his time and money were going to his family.
Walker said that though he does not have a Ph.D. or a law degree from Ivy League schools, he hoped that voters would see his results reforming government against unions and left-wing interests.
“I hope they’ve seen that my results… show I got a graduate degree in taking on the big-government special interests,” he said.
In 2014, Walker touted his “UW Flexible Degree” proposal and indicated that he would like to one day complete his degree through the program, which “will allow adults to start classes anytime, work at their own pace, and earn credit for what they already have learned in school or on the job once they prove college-level competencies.”
The NH1 poll was conducted Wednesday and has a margin of error is +/- 3.85 percentage points.
They don't know what to do with Walker. Although be might appear bland and even maybe a
little dorky in appearance, as soon as he begins to speak it's a whole different story.His comments are clear, concise, intelligent, and eloquent. No stammering, stuttering, or searching
for the right words. He comes right out with it. He's not the type that needs to be "coached up."Agree or disagree with his philosophies, the guy is SOLID.
I could think of a lot of other less complimentary ways to describe the Koch Brothers owned Scott Walker.
He will not be the GOP nominee, alloak. I'd wager $100 with you on this, but based on previous attempts at challenging you on your high regard for candidates & my thinking they go nowhere, I know you won't step up to the plate.

Do you mean as in George Soros, the French, Socialist billionaire who owns obama?Gee, muleman doing the same thing he accuses others of doing.... hmmmmm.... 😛

So, the liberals have a problem with The Koch Brothers supporting conservatives but it is okay for a foreign socialist billionaire to support liberals.
Talk about hypocrisy.
That isn't what I said...........

Not at even odds. Nobody would take that bet.
Most oddsmakers have him as 2nd favorite behind Jeb Bush or 3rd behind Bush and Rubio, in the 5/1 range. Definitely not the long shot at the moment, at least according to the oddsmakers.

In February of 2015, don't put your money on any horse in this race.
I wonder what the odds are on the number of times the pools and odds change over the next 20 months.
Who will implode first?
Who will burnout first?
Will hillarys or warrens campaign be the first to say the B word?
Will Christie smack the crap out of Ron Paul on stage?
This is gonna be fun!
It looks like the courts have turned against Walker. His fight with the Judicial System is just beginning. That two-bit drop out won't ever be President. Just another uneducated Right Wing Nut.

anything you say , I will let Scott Walker answer that jerk off statement
"We've had an Ivy-trained lawyer in the White House for six years who's pretty good at reading off the teleprompter, but has done a pretty lousy job leading this country, I'd rather have a fighter who's proven he can take on the big government special interests and win."

The far-left Washington Post impressed with Scott Walker
Scott Walker continues to impress
By Jennifer Rubin - February 19 at 3:15 PM - The Washington Post
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker continues to improve his delivery and grow into the role of presidential candidate. Appearing on CNBC this morning, he made the case for “new, fresh faces, I think from outside Washington with big, bold ideas and a track record.” He was gracious to potential opponents, saying he admired former Florida governor Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), but made a persuasive pitch for economic growth out in the country, not in government. On foreign policy, he appears more comfortable, able to make common-sense analogies that may appeal to average voters. He is emphatic that the jihadist threat is a threat to the American homeland. (“Whether it’s special ops or other engagements out there, we’ve got to be prepared to do what it takes to keep America safe.”) And in clear contrast to some other candidates, he is not circumscribing our military options in the war against the Islamic State. “I think we need aggressive leadership to take the fight to them instead of waiting for it to come to us,” he declared.
Walker has not had direct foreign policy experience, but he can compete ably with more experienced opponents. As former Texas governor Rick Perry has done, he’d be smart to start speaking and writing op-eds on the issues before us, making clear that he is prepared to indict the Obama-Clinton foreign policy and offer a more robust and reasoned approach to the world. (Unlike President Obama, he had no problem determining the attacks in France were not random but manifestations of Islamic jihadism. “Obviously we’ve seen [it] in Europe. We most notably saw what happened in France.”)
Moreover, Walker can compete on his own terms by setting a tone that may be feistier than Bush’s and drawing on executive experience Rubio does not have. He should not be shy in bashing the president when he delivers a ridiculous speech, as Obama did yesterday, proposing trivial measures (e.g. social media and jobs) to address Islamic radicalization and arguing that poverty drives Muslims to terrorism. (Obama said, “when millions of people — especially youth — are impoverished and have no hope for the future, when corruption inflicts daily humiliations on people, when there are no outlets by which people can express their concerns, resentments fester,” but why then do we not see impoverished Hindus or unemployed Catholics shooting up Western capitals in the name of their religions?) Walker has an understated delivery that he can put to good use in exposing the faux sophistication of a president who says we should he “honest” about the enemy but not call it “Islamic radicalism.” Walker’s personality — pugnacious but much more measured than New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — provides a fine contrast to some of his opponents and to the liberal elites who are fixated on a narrative of Muslim victimization.
Walker also can be both more concrete (vow to undo military sequester) and more thematic than competitors — for example, calling out Obama for his ludicrous vision of reconciliation with Iran. There are specific errors committed by the Obama-Clinton administration that others tend to gloss over. With it just now dawning on the president that Syria needs to be stable to fight the Islamic State, Walker can remind voters that Obama had his chance to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and failed to do so. And likewise, he can make clear that the biggest error with regard to Benghazi was the failure of the Obama-Clinton team to pay attention to what was happening in Libya.
Finally, Walker should not hesitate to draw attention to his own experiences that demonstrate leadership and spine. He refers to Ronald Reagan’s firing of workers from the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization (PATCO) as setting a tone with the Soviets. But Walker’s own standoff and victory over the teachers union highlights his tenacity and refusal to buckle in the face of liberal hysteria. He shouldn’t be shy about saying so. He has made a name for himself standing up for taxpayers against bullies in public employee unions, and he can bring that same spirit to a foreign policy vision that is resolute, no-nonsense and unconcerned with elite opinion. In sum, using his plainspoken persona to his advantage, he can make the case that character, judgment, clarity and tenacity are as important as knowledge in foreign affairs.

Scott is ROCK SOLID. His every word and action is grounded
in the conviction of his beliefs. Political expediency, posturing,
and flimsy positioning are foreign concepts to Walker. He's
100% comfortable, and that's the reason he doesn't have
to stammer and stutter through every statement he makes. It
just flows from him.
I'm surprised BB would make a statement like the one he
made. He must really hate Walker.

So now the leftist press is credible? You say the leftist press prints nothing but lies. So, using your wide paint brush, this is a lie.
The left has thrown everything at this guy and they will continue to throw everything at him.
What do they want a choice of Bush and Clinton for the next election. Scott Walker is a breath of fresh air. The same attacks are getting old. What is next, is he part of the phony war on women? I know one thing he won't be afraid to say " Islamic terrorism"
So Rudy Rudy Giuliani makes yet another of his stupid "I'm still relevant petty statements", and then Scott Walker sidesteps a defense of RG twice in one short interview. At least he's consistent in avoiding questions. If he makes it to the GOP debates, I wonder if he'll continue with this tactic.

I don't think any one should apologize
Did Obama apologize for saying Bush was unpatriotic for the national debt?
Normally if a person loves ____________, they don't normally express a desire to "fundamentally transform" that that they love. Doesn't make much sense.

Interesting. Based on that comment, I believe that Obama is the standard that you hold others to. If you felt walker and Giuliani were superior people to Obama, one would think that they should be held to a higher standard. But you don't think that.
Normally if a person loves ____________, they don't normally express a desire to "fundamentally transform" that that they love. Doesn't make much sense.
So there is never room for improvement? Everything is perfect? I guess you will be voting Democratic from now on seeing as they have perfected the country.

The fact that he's el porko's current favorite makes it more satisfying.

True. Most of them try to change a thing or two. Totally different animal from a fundamental transformation, however.
