Rationalizing
I am always amused when people attempt to cover up reality with patently made up stories.
For politicians it is an attempt, I think, to preserve the possibility of a comeback in the future.
Scott Walker is the first of the GOoPers to drop out. In his case there was divine intervention!
Scott Walker: I was 'called' to exit the race
These guys always have god on their side somehow. Even for a defeat.
Well, defeat is not the right word here. The problem is/was that no one took Scott Walker seriously at any time. No one but Scott Walker. A walking delusion.
I love his face. The beady eyes. The funny thousand yard stare. He is a weird guy. For a politician. He has no charm, no looks, none of what my Dad used to call the "suave". He is geek from the midwest that got thrust into the spotlight for spouting the birther/patriot line.
Good luck to him in the future. Which, for a guy like this, might be either a pulpit or perhaps lesser office.
I had forgotten that Wisconsin is also the home of my own era's Joe McCarthy. Aha! Is it in the water?
