How is governor Walker going to explain his secret email server?

Governor Walker hasn't said much about Hilary Clintons email troubles, wanna guess why? As republicans across the nation froth and foam, writhe and flail over Hilary's email server issue, they forget that their sweet heart Scott "beam me into the whitehouse" Walker had a secret email sever in a closet outside his office which he has claimed he knew nothing about. Hmmm, wonder why he is so quiet about Hilary?
Here is a link to the investigative article. http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/court-set-to-release-emails-documents-tied-to-ex-aide-to-scott-walker-b99208267z1-246128301.html?ipad=y

I mean the guy actually convinced the working people of WI that allowing companies to pay them $7 an hour is a good thing.

He is part of a small group of Koch owned politicians who consider the laws and rules a joke, the rest of us follow them and as a result we struggle constantly.

they never do

But I'm not sure sarcasm is really necessary, as this seems to be the way our corporate media really operates.

7. Probably the same way he did it in WI for the John Doe investigation

First he claimed he was ignorant of the whole thing. And by WHOLE he and his accolytes mean EVERYTHING that could taint Walker.

Second, he sent an email, it has been (ineffectively I think) argued as proof that he was surprised and put his foot down to stop the hanky-panky in the office. It effectively said there can be no more newspaper stories that bring disrepute to his campaign, the campaign work in the county exec's office had to stop.

8. The press needs to pin Walker to the wall on this. He is perhaps the most dangerous person in

...America,


He is Ted Cruz with an inexplicable media reputation as a "moderate conservative".


So he is many times more dangerous than Cruz, since the media is giving him a free pass.

The REAL dangers guys in WI are the Fitzgerald Bros, who control the legislature as the republican dominated court back them up

Walker would be scary president with a tea-party controlled Congress. I don't think a generic republican majority would be radical enough to reliably back him

They should be commended, not condemned. Beside, I didn't know anything about it."
