....right wing Republican POTUS wannabe biting the dust?


Scott Walker Campaign Imploding: Cancels Events Nationwide As Popularity
Plummets

Republican candidate Scott Walker is going from presidential hopeful to
presidential hopeless.

Walker’s popularity has plummeted in recent weeks. In Iowa, a key
early-primary state, Walker was polling in first place in July, and is
now ranked 10th among Republican candidates. And after a dismal
performance in this past week’s Republican debate, a new CNN poll shows
less than half of 1% of Republicans in favor of the union-busting
Wisconsin governor nationwide.

Realizing that his campaign is in tail-spin mode, Walker has decided to
cancel multiple events in important states such as Michigan and
California, turning his focus exclusively to Iowa and South Carolina
instead, in a last-ditch attempt to gain a victory in the early primaries.

Walker was scheduled to speak to thousands of Republicans at an event on
Mackinac Island in Michigan, but twice canceled his appearance. He said
that he was unable to make it to the event because he was attending
another Republican forum in South Carolina. But his Republican opponent,
Jeb Bush in fact attended both events without a problem. Walker also
attempted to blame the weather for his cancellation.
