It's a longtime ritual: Would-be presidents come to Philadelphia, visits one or both of our most famous steak shops, Pat's Steaks or Geno's (Republicans prefer Geno's because of the late owner's famed bigotry), and then the national media critiques their choice.
Now, I don't care what you order on your cheesesteak; no real Philadelphian does. (The correct response to anyone who doesn't like what you ordered is, "What, you got a problem with that?")
But I would like to point out that, in classic Republican style, 1. He ordered one steak from each place, leaving one hardly touched. Typical Republican, he bit off more than he could chew and 2) He left his mess on the table, apparently expecting Democrats to clean up after him:
.@GovWalker in South Philly: cuts in line, orders wrong thing 2x, doesn't clean up after himself. Frontrunner! http://t.co/Uv1APueyGy

Several Philly tourists not amused with Scott Walker crashing their lunch. Overheard: “Stand in line with the rest of us.” “Who is that?”

If Scott Walker is dumb enough to cut a steak line in South Philly, do you really want him running the country? https://t.co/CCRpjvcsIZ

Scott Walker cut in line at Geno's to order a cheesesteak with American cheese and no onions. He's not getting out of Philly alive.

Scott Walker is going to Pat's and Geno's in Philly. But I think I know which one he'll prefer. pic.twitter.com/a9SSSWLpGG

I was too busy staring at Scott Walker's bald spot to notice the sign. pic.twitter.com/l4eqtVJwJx
