Mary Burke Just Might Kill Gov. Scott Walker’s Dreams of Losing GOP Presidential Primary | Wonkette

Quote:
Scott Walker’s job security as King of Wisconsin and Union-Buster in Chief appears increasingly precarious, even as he is road tripping to push for a promotion to that oval-shaped office in Washington. Marquette Law School just released a third consecutive poll showing the 2016 presidential hopeful in a dead heat for re-election with his Democratic challenger, former state commerce secretary and Trek Bicycle executive Mary Burke.

Gov. Walker, shown above pre-presidenting at the nation’s foremost gathering of federalist lawyers, still has some conservative swashbuckler cred for his defeat of the syndicalists in the Wisconsin Union Wars, his effortless survival of his historic recall election, and his consistent dedication to pulling Wisconsin to the right on social issues like abortion and the gays.

There are problems for Scott on the home front, however: His program of union squashing and tax cuts has failed to produce the 250,000 jobs he promised, and now the state is facing a dramatic shortfall in revenue that his budget failed to plan for. Yet another fiscally responsible governor using GOP principles to put his state on the path to robust economic health!

Weekends are so twentieth-century.

Walker is one of the worst human beings imaginable.
