Walker plays Kaine in Pence's debate prep because of his "debating skill" LOL!

It's always surprising how Republicans outside Wisconsin overestimate Walker's abilities and intelligence. What did these people possibly see in Walker's debate performance that would lead them to believe he has any level of "debating skill"? I mean, his debate performance dropped him to under 1% in the polls. They really live in a bubble, I guess.

In Mike Pence’s prep sessions for the vice-presidential debate, the role of Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) is being played by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a top GOP source told POLITICO on Saturday.

The first mock debate has already been held. Walker, who ended his GOP primary campaign in September, was chosen because he has been in presidential debates before, and because Kaine was Virginia governor...

The choice rested on Pence and Walker's personal rapport along with Walker's perceived debating skill, the source said. Walker was only enlisted for the role in the last two weeks.

One well-wired Republican called Walker a “great pick”: “Walker is basically the same as Kaine" ...

Kaine is sharp as a tack and connects through the camera as if he is talking directly to you.

Walker's looks like he has the lingering effects of a gas leak and his energy barely makes it to the mic in front of him.

Santorum would have been a better choice, he's a certified loser.

wisconsin republicans love scott walker. This shows walkers support for the national ticket and makes it
ok for the wow county gop who did not vote for trump to come back into the fold.

slippery way to appeal for unity behind trump in wisconsin without saying a word.
