The Nation: The Republican They Always Wanted : NPR: "John Nichols is a political blogger. His posts have been circulated internationally, quoted in numerous books and mentioned in debates on the floor of Congress.
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, a political careerist who has never taken one elected office without beginning to position himself to run for the next, made a wild play for the national stage just weeks after being sworn in last winter as a Republican governor with Republican majorities in both chambers of the Wisconsin legislature.
The former senator is focused on fighting the extreme agenda of a Republican governor is his home state — and the compromises of members of both parties in Washington. But his increased public profile has progressives talking about running him for an open Senate seat, or perhaps in a recall election against anti-union Governor Scott Walker."
