LOVE THE GUY – AT 8:36 A.M. ET:  Scott Walker is heading for a presidential run.  This is what he said on "Hannity" this week, via RealClearPolitics: 

On Tuesday's broadcast of FOX News' Hannity Gov. Scott Walker (R-Wis.) said he will make his decision to run for president "by midsummer."

"I think any realistic candidate has to be in by this summer," Walker said. My budget will come out next Tuesday, for the fifth and sixth year in a row I'll lower property taxes. I want a few months to get that job done. But I'll be in New Hampshire and South Carolina and back in Iowa, and we're going to be talking about these issues for the next several months. We're excited where we can take this country."

"And if you were going to give me odds of you running, what are the odds?" Hannity asked.

"I don't think it's ever been good to bet against me," Walker said. Certainly in the last three elections for governor in the past four years, I wouldn't be betting against me in a race like this either."

COMMENT:  I love his spirit.   The man fights.  He's not in it to "participate."  He's been a great governor, the man who saved Wisconsin.  I'd put him right at the top of presidential candidates.
