Hop into the Wayback Machine and check out these #HuffPoWalkerScandals

The Daily Beast has already looked into the color of Ted Cruz’s bathrobe in college, and now it’s Scott Walker’s turn for a comprehensive investigation. Vetting of Barack Obama will have to wait just a few years longer.

While the Huffington Post continues its investigation, tweeters wonder what’s next to come in #HuffPoWalkerScandals.
