Arrogant Koch puppet Scott Walker has gone from leading the Republican field in Iowa to losing more support in Iowa than any other candidate, including Hillary Clinton.
The new NBC News/Marist Poll of Iowa revealed the fact that the wheels have completely fallen off of the Scott Walker presidential campaign. In July, Walker led Donald Trump 19%-17%. Jeb Bush and Ben Carson were third and fourth and 12% and 8% respectively.

Walker has managed to lose 14 points of support in two months. He has fallen into a four-way tie for fourth place at 5%. Trump leads at 28%. Ben Carson is second at 22%, with Jeb Bush third at 6%. Gov. Walker is tied for fourth with Carly Fiorina and Rand Paul.
Scott Walker has lost more support in Iowa than Hillary Clinton (-7 points) and Jeb Bush (-6 points) combined, but the media doesn’t point out how wrong they were. Instead, the press is obsessively focused on Hillary Clinton. Scott Walker can lose nearly three-fourths of his support, and the press doesn’t blink, but Hillary Clinton drops seven points in a contest that she is still leading, and the media freaks out.
The press parrotted the Republican Party line about their deep bench when it turns out their roster of candidates have fallen flat on their faces. Three of the top four candidates in the Republican field are political newcomers.
The Republican Party is setting itself up for an unprecedented failure, but all the media is concerned with is the fact that Clinton has slipped by a handful of points to the most popular candidate in either party.
Democrats, liberals, and progressives need to be speaking out more about the media’s double standard. Scott Walker is getting a free pass on his total failure while Clinton is having her political obituary written while she is winning.
The corporate controlled media treats Republicans better than Democrats, and the bias has never been clearer when one compares Scott Walker and Hillary Clinton.
