as class let out shouting that a vote for Walker is a vote to freeze rising tuition costs. They're so skanky to me, the big-mouthed Walkerites. I can't wait till they go away.

(8,879 posts)5. Random. Just a large amount of college students with ten
minutes to get to their next class. He could get his voice out with a very simple message to a lot of students in a short time. It was an opportunity to spread the kind of unnuanced soundbite styled message that is easy and enticing to the politically uninitiated.
