Choice 2016: Scott Walker Drops out of race

Choice 2016 
 

                                                 
      After a drop in a recent poll by CNN ,  Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker , has decided to make his exit from the race, Monday.
    He also urged  other members of the party, running to do the same saying  today :
"Today, I believe that I am being called to lead by helping to clear the field in this race so that a positive, conservative message can rise to the top of the field. With this in mind, I will suspend my campaign immediately,"
    "I encourage other Republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same so that the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive, conservative alternative to the current front-runner," said Walker, referencing businessman Donald Trump. "This is fundamentally important to the future of our party, and, more important, the future of the country."

He is the 2nd republican to drop out of the race  , the first being former Texas Governor , Rick Perry,  a couple weeks ago.  The field is now down to 15 candidates and now wonderment on who else might be choosing to leave the race.

  The splash and current Front runner also gave his comment on Gov. Walker's decision.
