On Wednesday, the National Review<\/a> posted an article showing where the donations are going in the Republican Presidential Primary<\/a>. The results are somewhat surprising.<\/p>\n

In the 2016 presidential race<\/a>, Scott Walker<\/a> has a couple advantages based on his electoral experiences alone: His back-to-back election victories after changing the state\u2019s public-union rules drew attention and support from grassroots<\/a> conservatives<\/a> across the country, and to help win those races, he was all over the country raising millions of dollars from big national Republican donors. No other Republican contender has fought a national fight like that. It\u2019s hard to measure grassroots cred, but just how dramatic is Walker\u2019s first-contact advantage with big donors?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Frankly, I think there is a message here. Many conservative Republicans are getting very tired of being expected to vote for the establishment candidate. It has become obvious that establishment Republicans don’t want to cut spending in Washington<\/a>–they simply want to control the money instead of the Democrats<\/a>. Conservatives are getting tired of voting for Republicans and watching government grow and taxes increase. Scott Walker is a Republican who represents the conservatives within the party. Hopefully the establishment will not try to undermine his candidacy.
