The Progressive: What We’ve Learned from the Walker Leaks

The folks over at The Progressive have pointed out some strong parallels between Gov. Scott Walker and his New Jersey counterpart, Gov. Chris Christie.

Among the parallels between Walker and Christie, both governors were micromanagers of their campaigns, staff, and messaging. Both focused not on serving the interests of citizens but on their next political goal. And both had an “inner circle” and maintained private communications they thought would not be breached.

In Walker’s case, being part of his “inner circle” meant using the secret email network set up in his office. That network offered a direct line to Walker, according to his own staffers.

So much for Walker’s repeated assertions that he had no part in those communications.

  1. I disagree that they are alike in their manner of prevaricating.

    Christie lies more convincingly than Walker. I concede they are equal in the excessive volume or number of lies compared to an ordinary politician.

    In code, IPIGWCTS.

  2. Oh but if you like your lying politicians- you can keep them. Period.
    Libs DARE to talk about dishonesty?
