This Monday after announcing his retirement from the arena Scott Walker, Governor of Wisconsin, urged other republicans pre-candidates to follow his example so as to make voters focus on a limited number of figures that can present a positive conservative alternative to the current favorite, referring to Trump.
Walker's statements are in line with those of former Governor of Texas Rick Perry, for whom the real estate magnate became a Cancer for conservatives in the country that should be eliminated.
Despite its aura of being considered a winner and pre-competition favorite, with one of the most successful fund-raising campaigns of his party, with a bunch of billionaires in his corner and tens of millions of dollars behind his presidential ambitions, Walker completed his efforts, although some analysts said was very rushed.
Now, several campaigns, including Jeb Bush, former governor of Florida, are immersed in winning the support of the followers of the resigning in Iowa, whose caucus will mark the start of elections in the country.
After being aware of the resignation a down in the dumps Bush, still favorite of the old guard of the party, praised Walker and asked for the support of his followers although he is increasingly sinking in the polls.
The Republican bid is led by real estate magnate Donald Trump, followed by delegate ex-adviser, Hewlett-Packard Carly Fiorina and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, according to the latest survey released Monday on CNN.
Apparently there is fear in the Republican leadership that someone from outside Washington can win the party elections, unless Trump, who despite signing a commitment with the National Republican Committee of not running as a third option could move in that direction if he feels himself cornered by his colleagues.
