Ed Goeas, pollster for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, says it is “very likely” Walker will run for president but has yet to make a decision.

“Some of the indicators coming back in are very positive, very positive for him looking at running,” Goeas said at an event in Madison, Wisconsin. “But I don’t think he’s going to make that decision before he’s gone through the entire process.”

Goeas told the assembled business leaders that Walker is “just what the doctor ordered in terms of the future of the country.”

The pollster isn’t worried about Walker potentially peaking too soon – some 10 months before any Republican casts a ballot.

“There is no such thing in politics as peaking too soon,” he said.

He predicts a Walker clash with Jeb Bush.

“At the end of the day, it’s very likely you see both of them getting into the race,” he said. “I think it’s going to be a very spirited — not focused on each other — as much as focused on the future and kind of changing the direction of the country.”

A new nationwide Quinnipiac poll finds Walker has the support of 18% of Republican and Republican-leaning voters, with Bush in second with 16%.

While Walker is criss-crossing the country, he’s also attempting to shore up his conservative credentials at home.

The Wisconsin legislature is poised to pass a private sector right-to-work bill, which the governor has vowed to sign.

He’s also indicated his support for a bill that would repeal a 48-hour waiting period for handgun purchases and has also said he would sign legislation restricting abortions after the baby is 20 weeks old.

In his proposed state budget, Walker is calling for further expanding school choice.
