Bill Walker was the viable alternative to  Sean Parnell who set the stage for this fiscal crisis by hyper-inflating the economy by allowing those massive capital spending appropriations. In an effort to avoid the recession in the lower 48 we stomped on the spending accelerator and created a bloated government structure that cannot be sustained.  Nobody could see that the price of oil would collapse yet we had experienced that before and completely dismissed the possibility of it happening again. That said I will not vote for Governor Walker unless he sets a date certain at which time he either has binding contracts to sell the necessary gas for his pipeline project or he shuts it down.  He must know that AKLNG  will not survive if he is not in office so now is the time to "put up or shut up".  I will see what the choices are and I want to hear specific solutions not just more populist blather from the right or the left.
