Walker's no Brando on a bike

Joel McNally in a Capital Times column:

When I was growing up, my favorite outlaw biker was Marlon Brando in "The Wild One." There's that great scene where Brando roars into town with his scruffy pack of motorcycle reprobates.

Somebody on the street asks him what he's rebelling against. "Whattaya got?" snarls Brando. Outlaw bikers have really changed.

Today County Executive Scott Walker roars into small towns around the state on a Harley, tells somebody on the street to visit the Milwaukee County Zoo and then meets with local reporters to talk about his candidacy for governor of Wisconsin.

The biggest difference between Brando and Walker is that Brando was more honest.
