| Well shit. |
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is set to drop out of the presidential race Monday night, a source close to the campaign confirms to NBC News.
He is scheduled to hold a press conference in Madison, Wisconsin, at 6pm ET to announce his exit from the race.
The Republican was once considered a frontrunner for the GOP nomination, topping polls in Iowa and winning accolades from conservatives for his fights against labor unions during his tenure as governor of the state.
Somewhere the Koch brothers are standing in the rain with their faces lifted to the sky yelling "TRUUUUMP!!!!"
But come on the guy was NEVER going to get the nomination.
Besides after you poll at 0% why stay in the race?
Update: Here is Walker quitting and bitching about the Donald.
So to sum up God told him to drop out for the good of the party.
Can't argue with that.
Good, he is a horrible, horrible person!
ReplyDeleteDamn. All those days and nights of knee- and forearm rug burn for Koch money, and it comes to this.
ReplyDeleteNot impressive at all! He'll never be POTUS. Look at his horrible record in Wisconsin!
ReplyDeleteot Why does Alaska now have a giant deficit?
ReplyDeleteWe don't. What we have is a lying legislature.
DeleteDropping oil prices and dropping oil production and Sean Parnell's massive giveaway (SB 21) to the oil producers.
DeleteSince Alaska is a welfare state ( number )ne in the nation) they never pay their own way.
DeleteWe pay for all the Palin's acknowledged leavings and those that are not acknowledged.
And he's a really big dork too!
ReplyDeleteFinally. some GOOD news! He was never, and never will be, qualified for POTUS. Simply being a bully and a tool of the Koch brothers does not cut it.
ReplyDeleteHow much time did you spend writing that mish mash of gossipy Palin clickbait ?
ReplyDeleteDesperate times require desperate measures huh ?
You must be losing traffic faster than Micheal Sam is losing twitter followers.
Well, Alexa thinks so anyway...
Meow! Such catty remarks
DeleteYou must be a Palin 1:31 with the crack about Michael Sam (with the name spelled wrong of course).
Delete1:31 PM Is having troll withdrawal symptoms again. Are you lost again? Try pulling your head out of your ass so that you can see where you are going.
DeleteHi, Brisket.
DeleteAnd where will the Koch money "trickle down" to?
ReplyDelete#anybodyButTrump
The Kochs and their Kochsuckers have been trickling down on me for decades.
DeleteAnybody but bush!
DeleteAnybody but bush!
DeleteNice try Snotty...now go get fitted for your new orange jumpsuit.
ReplyDeleteThis is great news. They say Scott Walker dropped out of college, but I think he flunked out. Lots of media stories compared him to Sarah Palin because he was and is not ready for prime time.
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty clear that Walker got kicked out, or pressured to drop out, due to cheating in a school election. Marquette University is a Jesuit (Catholic) school, and they don't put up with that crap. They might not state publicly what happened, but it's obvious. Otherwise people just don't drop out in their last semester.
DeleteNot to mention Walkers' obsession with defunding any and all Wisconsin schools. From kindergarten all the way up to the UW systems.
Delete1:31. Are you too idiotic to figure out how to post a comment to the blog piece to which you are referring? I see you post your jibberish to the wrong posts almost daily....I know these inter-tubes can be sooooo confusing for the Wassiler-billies missing their GEDs.
ReplyDeleteKochs are getting desperate. Trump does not need their money. He's a megalomaniac and an jerk, but more importantly he's a billionaire megalomaniac and jerk. And he knows he can say anything and do anything and it just doesn't matter. His ratings go up. I wonder when the bloom will be off his particular rose for the GOP?
ReplyDeleteThe polls keep changing I'm sure they are stumped as to who they can buy who can win and they can still control. Scotty was easy since he was such a dunce. But I don't think they can buy or control Fiorina, Carson or Bush.
DeleteWe'll never have a First Lady named "Tonette" now.
ReplyDeleteFunny, funny comment. Thanks.
DeleteBut there is still hope gor a First Lady Melanoma, uh, Melonball, Myzxtplyx...
Delete..
and don't forget we could have First Lady Columba! Oh, who am I kidding, like the republican party is going to vote for a Mexican First Lady (said with a dash of snark)
DeleteScott Walker is one of the many GOP candidates who said that God wanted them to run. http://www.progressive.org/news/2011/03/157986/scott-walker-believes-he%E2%80%99s-following-orders-lord
ReplyDeleteHe didn't hear the rest, before he took off.
DeleteHis God was trying to tell him :"run, run off a cliff and kill yourself, you imbecile!
winner of the day! OMG , we don't want scotty back in WI. I now know how Alaskans felt when Scarah had to come back home, tail between her legs.
DeleteWalker doing press conference right now.
ReplyDeleteEssentially attacking Donald Trump style politics.
Blaming everybody else but his own dumb self. Way to go Snotty! Where's that taking personal responsibility Republicanism? Nice touch encouraging everybody else to quit like he did. What's the matter, Snot? Koch not returning your phone calls? You are nothing to those two old white Kochs.
DeleteActually, Snotty has a point. This pathetic field, at least most of it, should bow out. The only ones who have something to say (albeit mostly crapola) are John Kasich. Jeb! and Marco Rubio. Carly is a mean-spirited egomaniac who is not truthful. The rest of the field is laughable, IMHO.
DeleteAnd all over the Internet this morning are ads for Scott Walker and his "winning" results. ::pfffft!::
ReplyDeleteWhy are they spending ad money NOW? Or did the vendor have it finished and wanted to be paid?
There is a reason he was compared to Sarah Palin so often. The man is dumber than a box of rocks.
DeleteBelieves he is being "called to lead" by "clearing the field."
ReplyDeleteCalls on other candidates to drop out as well, leaving only the viable ones left.
Just thanked God.
ReplyDeleteThat's confusing.
Gryphen, we're ALL thanking God.
Delete(almighty Zeus, that is..)
winner #2. run snotty run........off that cliff hahahahaha.
DeleteHow con someone go from leading the pack to polling 0% and dropping out 13 1/2 months before election day?
ReplyDeleteHe opened his mouth and spoke. Sound familiar?
DeleteThe price of a wall between Alaska and Yukon probably cost Walker a few poll %s.
DeleteWell, as long as he was careening around acting all Presidential candidate, he didn't have to return to Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteNow he can go back to fucking over the people of Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteGod tells him to run, then just a few months later, God tells him to pull out. Why all the confusion and who is this God guy and who put him in charge of running the universe??
ReplyDeleteI don't know who "God" is either....but I am from Wisconsin and I hope that whoever that "God" is, they ALSO tell him to quit Wisconsin governship too!
DeleteYeah, wouldn't you think that God, being omnipotent, would have been able to see what a fucked up mess the Republican "deep bench" would become? Hell, I could see it and I am blind as a bat. That god that they keep claiming is talking to them is just as fucked up as they are and certainly isn't omnipotent.
DeleteWhile it's very confusing it's also why Bristol Palin won't require any man to wear a condom ( if you figure it out pls contact Bristol).
DeleteI think we can all agree that this is the song Freddie Mercury would sing in honor of Scott Walker's heroic campaign to run for president of the United States of America:
ReplyDelete"We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World!!
Oops...Wait... Wrong song. Sorry.
This is the one we can all agree on...

If it is true Gov Walker will dropout from the 2016 presidential race, that means a door has opened for Gov Sarah Palin to run for 2016 POTUS. The question is will Gov Sarah Palin put her foot in the door before it closes like it closed in 2012?
ReplyDeleteRUN, SCREECHY!!! RUN!!!!
DeleteMore likely she and Brancy will put their high heels in their mouth.
DeleteThere was no door for Sarah Palin in 2012. The door closed on Sarah Palin on election night 2008, and there will never be another door.
DeleteAre you nuts? Sarah is a disgrace to the party she says she loves and is taken seriously by very few people. She, like The Donald is an entertainer... and a fool.
DeleteLMAO!!! The whole clown car could drop out and the remaining candidate would not have the last name of Heath nor Palin. Quit drinking the koolaide.,
DeleteMore likely put her foot in her mouth.
DeleteSarah Palin can't stand up to the scrutiny of another national campaign and she knows it. She is a laughing stock and would poll even less than Scotty Walker.
A Palin campaign would be nothing but a joke, fodder for late night.
She would be eviscerated in the media.
Waaaa! Waaaa! How dare the Donald steal the spotlight by putting the obnixious new Republican message front and center, while we try to keep peddling our stealthier verson of the new Republican message!
ReplyDeleteLong live stealth and dog whistle politics!
DeleteThe scary part are the people who thought you should be govna and voted for a moron.Mr wanker.
ReplyDeleteWhat very bad story maybe caused Walker to resign?
ReplyDeletehttp://gawker.com/what-very-bad-story-might-have-made-scott-walker-end-1732184479
Rumor has it his campaign director was caught in some lovely man on man action. Always the ones that protest to much.
DeleteWell, I predict Jeb (connotes excitement) will stick it out and get the nomination simply by lasting the longest. Doesn't mean he's the best choice, he'll just be the one that can hang on the longest. He's wanted to be president since before his brother's disastrous term. His own parents said they thought it would be Jeb (connotes excitement) that would be elected president one day. Sucks. The thought of seeing W. back in the White House and riding around on Air Force One makes me want to puke. I will seriously consider moving to Canada!
ReplyDeleteYeah, the nomination will probably go to the one that holds out the longest. And I have a feeling there will be supporters that will keep Jeb! afloat until he's the last viable candidate standing.
DeleteMaybe that $124 Million Scandal has finally caught up with Walker. Apparently corruption abounds in his administration.
ReplyDeleteFrom one Scott Walker to another, in honor of his cutting and running. Boo hoo hoo. Now I has a sad.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?t=17&v=Q11ium_-Lv8
I agree that Walker would never have gotten the nomination. But, neither will Trump. He's going to flame out and fizzle.
ReplyDeleteThe repugs have to run somebody with a semblance of sanity and gravitas so unless there is someone on the horizon, I think it is going to have to be Bush. It's pathetic what a shallow bench they have.
OT...the man that made the Muslim comments at the trump rally is a long known right winger tea party freak. The left have been using a picture of this dudes ridiculous get ups and signs for years as a scathing memo...

Here he is from last week...
http://www.insideedition.com/headlines/12011-was-man-who-asked-trump-muslim-question-planted-to-embarrass-him
Somehow in conservatives minds this proves that this guy is a liberal plant.....what??!!
It proves the exact opposite.
So by their own theory every time they posted the meme of Obama "bowing" to an Arab leader they are secret liberals.
Fantastic…the son of a preacher and a part-time secretary, who has less personal wealth than I do, and who was used by billionaires to dismantle labor unions, had to give up the race and go home due to lack of money to run his campaign. . Only in the Orwellian universe that is the republican party.
ReplyDeleteGood! Now beam yourself back to Wi. and stay there. This fool and the koch money bags really thought that Murica would just love him. Dumb asses!
ReplyDeleteI have relatives in Wi. One of them an ex teacher. This simpleton has no idea how bad he has hurt the state. He really thought the rest of the 49 would accept him? Ummmm......NO! You are not good enough to scrub our toilets, little boy.
I guess it's time for the Kochs to drag Romney out again.
There went America's best hope for defeating ISIS.
ReplyDeleteI'm taking my less than zero percent and giving it to someone who can beat Trump. How many "l"'s are in Hillary??
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else notice the irony of the favorite line we hear over and over again from republicans - the one about getting government out of our business and all that's shit? It's coming from the same idiots that are way overpaid by the same government doing the very thing they're preaching against. I don't know - kind of reminds me of those "family values" the closet cock suckers preach about - they rail against the evil gay thing but THEY are the "evil" gay thing.... And did I hear snotty Scotty give a shout out to his wife and 2 sons but no mention of the daughter? Or did I miss his reference to her?
ReplyDeleteHas anyone mentioned to this freak how the over reaching bad government pays for his disabled daughter and offers him the life of comfort and privilege - while he justified the destruction of unions and supports - PREACHES- no government hand outs for the less fortunate because people should work for a living. Isn't his whole lifestyle based on the dreaded word -SOCIALISM! His income is straight up - government hand out.
