True.
Sigh, another true believer. Paul stands NO chance because he would only carry the libertarians which is about 5% of the voters. Jeb Bush will probably do no better. Walker is Far from establishment. The only reason he gets talked about so much is because the left fears him. He has taken on the unions and won, turned his state around in only 4 years and won 3 elections in that time.
I agree with ALL the above but there is still more then enough time for walker to screw up or someone better to come along.

Voting changes nothing especially in this day of electronic voting machines. Only fools think their vote actaully matters and makes a difference.
^^ This is mainstream media BS. Paul is one of the few Republicans that would get many Independent votes and could get a few Democrat votes. The media tries to paint him as some far right extremist to keep the partisan divide, when in reality he is common ground between the two parties by being socially liberal and finically conservative. Scaling back our military in foreign policy while stepping up our use of diplomats and intelligence, making issues like gay marriage and drug legalization states rights issues, while cutting taxes and scaling back regulatory over reach. How many other Republicans can earn praise from famous lefties like John Stewart or Bill Maher(who I can't stand btw).
As far as Scott Walker goes, he still hasn't clarified his position on many issues like immigration. He has already started to crack on some of the issues that separate his Christian base from the left. He won based on his opposition of public sector unions, great, but that is not going to win a national election.
Paul could get the votes of the young, uninformed, stoned, and libertarian voters and that is pretty much it. On a national level libertarian leaning candidates pull about 5% of the vote in elections and that is it. This is why libertarian leaning candidates hide under the GOP banner hoping that someday one will win the nomination and that the GOP base will turn out for them. That did not happen for RINOs McCain or Romney and would not happen for Paul either unless the Dem candidate was really, really bad. Hillary may qualify.
Walker on the other hand admitted he changed his mind on immigration just the other day and also admits to still deciding on many national issues which is why I say there is still time for him to screw up.
I don't see anyone in the field who can beat Hilldog in the general, yet.
