Although I've not been too happy with some of his proposals, I have been generally supportive of Governor Walker's attempts to find a way out of the financial mess that the legislature and the previous governor have created. Importantly, he seemed to accept the political consequences of his actions.

But by allowing this piece of religious ideology to become law without his signature, Walker has revealed himself, sadly, as a coward. He could/should have made a case for supporting it or for vetoing it, but no, he took the coward's way out. This is a surprise to me, and I'd bet to many others, who regarded him as someone unafraid to take and maintain a position, agreeable to others or not.

So now we know, and from now on, unfortunately, it will color my view of every action and every position he takes.
