Scott Walker said political media planned to crown Carly Fiorina a debate winner 'no matter what'
Carly Fiorina almost wasn't allowed to participate in the debate because of CNN's eligibility rules
Once in, she was deemed the candidate to watch
Walker received less time than Fiorina and his performance was panned by pundits

Carly Fiorina was always going to win last night's debate, griped rival Scott Walker, whose own performance at last night's Republican debate was panned by political pundits.

'I think going in, we knew the narrative, no matter what was going to happen, was that they were going to say Carly had a big night, no matter what, and obviously they said that,' Walker said Thursday on Glenn Beck's radio show, blaming the political media for making the call and crowning Fiorina the winner.

While the Wisconsin governor had once been considered a top-tier GOP pick, Fiorina was among the pack's longshots, though has been surging in the polls in recent weeks.

...................................



The only female Republican candidate provided some of the biggest moments of the night.

She ripped Planned Parenthood, gave her plan for Iran, talked about her step-daughter's death from drug addiction, in one of the debate's more somber moments, and gave a blank-faced stare to Donald Trump when he complimented her looks.





In the spin room, Scott Walker hung around and talked to reporters, saying again that the country didn't need an 'apprentice' in the White House

Not only the media realize that he's a low grade idiot, and not worth their time. That seems to be the (correct) impression.

I am kind of glad the Kochs wasted so much in him. They could have done real damage to the country had they picked someone smarter.

In some ways that has allowed him to get where he is. But as we are beginning to see, it will also be his downfall.
