In perhaps one of the most unusual moments of the night, Walker pulled out a prop when his opponent brought up a controversy that surfaced early on in the campaign.

First, he blamed “neo-Marxists” for their estranged relationship, but was mostly cavalier about it, saying in full, “[The relationship with my daughter] may change, but I have very good relationships with all the others.

I’ve always thought being in politics required a certain degree of shamelessness. You have to be able to embrace an opponent you just spent the primary campaign trashing as an unfit human being.  You have to be able to flip-flop on an issue when the pressure gets too great while pretending there’s no change at all.  You have to be able to take credit for things you had nothing to do with and deflect scandal by saying there’s nothing to see here.
