GOP hopefuls understand the limits of 'centrism'

As the Republican hopefuls pitched themselves last weekend to the Conservative Political Action Conference, the Daily Beast’s Ana Marie Cox was incredulous that attendees seemed to think Republican Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, might make a strong national candidate.

Cox rejected as “utter bulls—t” the idea that a conservative politician like Walker can expand beyond his base. She also dismissed the argument that he had to do just that to win three consecutive elections in the not-very-conservative state of Wisconsin.
