In this slow-burner of a clip from Wednesday nights MSNBC coverage of the Republican National Convention, Wisconsins Gov. Scott Walker (R) found himself caught in the crossfire between two of the sharpest political commentators on television, Ed Show host Ed Schultz and Rachel Maddow, host of The Rachel Maddow Show. The interview begins cordially enough, but things start to get heated at about the 3-minute mark, when Maddow and Schultz pin Walker down on the question of something vice presidential nominee Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) said in his speech about President Barack Obamas alleged failure to save a Wisconsin auto plant.
Perhaps hoping that he would get to talk to Joe Scarborough or former network stalwart Pat Buchanan, Walker had wandered up to the MSNBC cameras and reporter Ron Mott to discuss the emotional impact Paul Ryans speech had on him.

I guess what I am saying is there appears to be more true believers every day...
