Wisconsin Governor Walker to announce presidential decision week of July 13: Fox News
WASHINGTON
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker said on Thursday he will announce the week of July 13 whether he will seek the Republican U.S. presidential nomination in 2016.
"The week of the 13th is when we will be likely to make our announcement as to what our intentions are," Scott told Fox News.
Walker is in second place among the large field of Republican presidential candidates and expected entrants, trailing front-runner Jeb Bush, a former Florida governor, in an average of polls compiled by RealClearPolitics.
If he decides to run, Walker, 47, would enter the race with the potential to appeal to a wide swath of Republican primary voters, from establishment-minded moderates to conservative Christians.

Talking about a 'decision' means he wants a little more attention and cash before he 'has other priorities.'

It sounds like his decision is being made by someone else.
It also deflects the responsibility onto some nebulous Other.
Oh, that's right, he has a direct line to God. So all is good, God will tell him what to do and he is off the hook for any consequences.
He is one scary blob of protoplasm.
