New polls shows Scott Walker fading with just 3% support in Republican primary field

Looks like the shine is wearing off Gov. Scott Walker as a credible Republican presidential candidate.

A new national poll shows Gov. Scott Walker continuing his free fall in the Republican presidential race, placing eighth with 3 percent support, while outsider candidates Donald Trump and Ben Carson pace the field.

The poll is the latest blow for Walker’s presidential campaign. Walker, once a leading candidate in national polls and in the early presidential state of Iowa, has weathered a slew of discouraging polls after the first GOP presidential debate last month.

A Thursday news release on the release of the Monmouth University poll said it shows Walker “fading into the background” of the Republican field.

While it is amusing to see Walker’s campaign crashing and burning, one has to pause and wonder what sort of punishment he’ll unleash on Wisconsin once he is forced to actually be back in Madison on a semi-regular basis. I have a bad feeling things will get much worse for working class folks in Wisconsin before they hopefully someday get better.
