all the horses are jockeying for position
Walker open to teaming up with Rubio on 2016 ticket
Gov. Scott Walker (Wis.) is open to the idea of teaming up with Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.) on a GOP presidential ticket
“I do like Marco Rubio, I think he and I have similar thoughts on national defense and foreign policy,” Walker said
Asked if he would be open to announcing in December that the two of them would run as a ticket, and settle who would be the nominee for president and vice president later, Walker replied that some supporters had pitched that idea.
 “I've actually had quite a few people, grassroots supporters, donors, and others, who have made that suggestion,” Walker said.
“For now, you know, Marco is a quality candidate. He's going to be formidable in this race as things progress. And if we were to get in, we'd be as well, and we'll see where things take us.”
He added that he and Rubio have joked that people mention the two possibly pairing up and said they would likely “have to arm wrestle over who would be top of the ticket."
