Adios, Scott Walker: Walker suspends Campaign, Drops Out–Poled At Less Than 1% {PICTURE]
According to a CNN poll released Sunday, the first major poll since last week’s Republican debate, Walker’s support among GOP voters had dropped to less than one-half of 1 percent, putting him below most of the contenders in the field.
Walker’s exit from the race marks a stunning defeat for a candidate who, in the early summer, was considered a top-tier candidate for the nomination. He at one point led primary polling in the early caucus state of Iowa, where he had roots and where his Midwestern appeal was considered likely to boost him to victory.
His lackluster performance in the GOP presidential debates in Cleveland and in Simi Valley, California, where he appeared wooden and stunted, failed to generate enough buzz to survive the “summer of Trump” or to overcome the appeal of other outsider candidates like Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson.
