Sure gives new meaning to the phrase "there is no there there"

Walker’s audience at FOX won’t care if he doesn’t have any policy proposals, but a larger group of mainstream voters will. I was worried about Walker (especially with all of his ALEC support) becoming a credible candidate, but am relieved to see that he is becoming less appealing, more incoherent, and more “out of his depth” as he gains exposure.

Walker and his Koch backers would prefer to keep you on a need to know basis.

jcblues · August 10, 2015, 5:46pm

yep… so I went to his ‘official’ page https://www.scottwalker.com/

it’s as blank as his stare… lot’s of press releases and whatta good boy I am but nothing substantive…

You really shouldn’t have told them. It would have been months before they figured it out on their own.

Same argument that was supposed to keep him from being reelected. Same argument that said he was certain to get recalled.

Duh, can’t any of you imbeciles work a freakin’ iPad?? It’s on the same part of the website as the GOP health care, tax reform, and Iran nuclear deal alternatives. IDIOTS.

Are these known unknowns or unknown knowns?

tiowally · August 10, 2015, 5:56pm

This reminds me of the much ballyhooed Rethuglican budget … that contained not a single number.

meri · August 10, 2015, 5:57pm

Needs moar !1!11!!1one11!!1

I know - which is why, in terms of Walker’s candidacy, I have vacillated between being genuinely concerned and not believing than anyone could consider him credible.

How dare you question the beauty and quality of the Emperor’s clothes!?

“[Walker’s] website appears to lack a clear landing page where supporters can read about the presidential candidate’s policy stances and proposals.”

FOX gave out the wrong address by mistake. Walker’s policy URL is: www.alec.org.

meri · August 10, 2015, 5:59pm

I’d definitely go with the latter…but fact of the matter is that Wisconsin is pretty representative of the country, IMO. Blue urban areas surrounded by red suburbs and deep red rural areas.

And that’s the only reason he concerns me. The Koch pricks will throw their money behind the one they think can win. And if it’s Walker that worries me.

More like ‘Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!’.

meri · August 10, 2015, 6:04pm

More like “Pay no attention to the puppeteer with his hand up my ass”.

I found it. Here is the full text of Scott Walker’s policy ideas:
