Ed Schultz Is Pretty Thrilled About Scott Walker's Demise


GREAT conversation at 14:30 into the video Ed and John Nichols talk about Bernie. People who don't know about him

On Tuesday’s Show, Ed gives commentary on Scott Walker exiting the Presidential race. Ed speaks with Con. Mark Pocan, D-WI, at Fighting Bob Fest to discuss averting a Government Shutdown. We are also joined by Ruth Conniff, Editor of the Progressive, to discuss Wisconsin helping to start the Bernie Sanders movement. John Nichols, Washington Correspondent for The Nation, joins Ed to discuss Sen. Sanders’ path to the Democratic nomination.

“What we have learned from Scott Walker throughout all of these months is that you can do a hell of a lot with an ego,” Schultz said.

“The guy’s a freaking loser," he said. "I feel vindicated. I knew along that attacking workers, attacking unions, and taking things away from hard working families is not a pathway to the future.”

Schultz said Walker dropping out was good news for Republicans because "all he was doing was getting in the way."
