Liberals have a real problem with Palin and the very left leaning HBO so much so that the movie they produced about the McCain Palin Presidential run "Game Changer" produced in 2012 is still listed in movie selection. How small can you get???
You did not balance your post with the intestinal fortitude shown by this candidate and the successful result of the very dirty and violent campagn against him in Wisconsin.

Would you be "close to the vest" with a reporter? No, you, as a politician, are on national television and are being asked direct questions. You are supposed to tell what your real opinions are and not deflect the question to something you have a canned answer.
Yes, Game Changer was a great movie. It showed Palin for the person she really is and what a terrible choice that was made in picking her for the VP slot. She was one of the major reasons the Republicans lost.
How did Walker win in Wisconsin? Low information voters and lots of Koch Brothers money.
Remember, this was an interview on This Week. Walker was supposed to show his quick replies to questions - and I am sure his handlers gave him all the question possibilities and told him if he was not sure of an answer, just to deflect the question and go to a canned answer. It was a terrible interview for Walker.
