Governor Walker doesn't show up in the polls; plans to make a comeback

MILWAUKEE -- If Governor Walker plans to make a comeback in the presidential campaign, he'll have to start from rock bottom. In every poll for the last 18 months, Walker has always gotten a number, but not today -- Sunday, September 20th he got an asterisk.

In sports, an asterisk is no good. It's reserved for a record-breaking performance, tainted. It's not a symbol that politicians want either because it's reserved for candidates who get less than 1% support.

Unthinkable when Walker rolled out his campaign in Waukesha ten weeks ago, Walker is now dead last. His support has eroded nationally ever since that campaign launch.

From 10%, to 8%, to 5%, to less than one in the first poll conducted since last week's Republican debate.

The man Walker took on early that night, Donald Trump, is still first -- but not as wide of a margin. Carly Fiorina is now second.

Walker meanwhile, is shifting his focus to Iowa. This weekend, he courted religious conservatives at a conference in Des Moines.

"People sometimes think that gatherings like this are about anger. They're not. I look around and I see smiling faces up here. People aren't angry, what we are is upset -- and there's a sense of urgency in America," said Walker.

And urgency for the governor, not to be defined by a symbol in a poll.

"I'm getting tired of the name calling and the personality issues out there. I think we want to talk about real issues, don't you?" said Walker.

Along with the new Iowa focus, Walker is now trying to outline his policy plans to voters. But late last week, he had to deal with news reports about a staff shakeup. Yet for now, there's been no shakeup.
