No way I can cast a vote for Walker. Can't trust him, "I'm a republican... No wait, I'm going to lose the Republican primary... I'm an Independent... Wait, still going to lose... I'm going to throw some folks under the bus and run with a Democrat... Yeah, thats it." For God's sake the guy wants to use tax money to build a pipeline for big oil companies.
I understand why the D's here did what they did. Hollis French had zero chance of winning against Parnel, I'm not knocking French just being pragmatic.
Guess, I'll write someone in.
