Wisconsin
Governor Walker enacted budget reforms which protected employees' paychecks and
curbed the collective bargaining rights of public sector unions. Despite the
massive protests in the state capital, and the flight of resistant Democratic
lawmakers, the governor and his legislature persevered. His policies saved school districts and cities
millions of dollars without tax increases or layoffs. The pension obligations
of the Dairy State are not milking the state coffers the way entitlements are
pillaging larger states like Illinois and California.

Walker’s
recall opponent could not criticize his reforms, since they assisted his own
governance in the city of Milwaukee. Throughout the recall campaign, Walker refused
to engage in name-calling and demagoguery. He outlined a positive vision of a recovering
Wisconsin based on individual enterprise and limited government instead of
state dependence and expanding state power.

Walker
won his second gubernatorial election in two years, the second by a greater
margin than the first. Walker’s political fundraising and outreach has
established a Republican Party base in a Progressive-Blue state, turning into a
Purple Swing-State which may determine future national elections, including his
own. He is pressing for expanded mining rights and lower income tax rates. Governor
Walker leads from his head and his heart. He says what he means, and he means
it when he does it. He is battle-tested
and unafraid to confront conflict while refusing to neglect compromise in the
best interests of the state. Walker would be a formidable force in 2016, if not
the Republican Presidential nominee.
