I really don't see any of them having a chance, honestly.

Walker due to his awe shucks everyday guy facade but could hurt if voters believe it.
Against Hillary though not a chance. Any other candidate could be trouble.

(14,449 posts)A better option. Time will tell.
The only negative we have going for us as a party is the 3rd consecutive win that is very hard to get which is why I am glad Hillary is running.

(466 posts)It depends on who and how many go to the polls, on how well the two campaigns are run, and how the economy is doing next year, and a whole lot of other stuff. It's waaaaaaaaaay too early to count anyone out.
So, don't get complacent.

(44,186 posts)Bush has the same crowd that took us into Iraq advising him. Not sure the majority of voters are up for that re-run.
Walker of course has Koch money and no doubt they will try to package him as they did Joni Ernst. Fluffy bio, hide your positions, don't talk to the press. I don't know that strategy can work on a national level.
On the other hand it will still be a pretty close election, down to the seemingly irrational undecided and irrational independents. You never know which way those folks are gonna go.
