We’re about as anti-Washington as you can get,” Mr. Walker said on a conference call, noting that three popular candidates, Mr. Trump (whom he referred to only as “the front-runner”), Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina have never served in office. “People have had it with Washington.”Mr. Walker acknowledged on a private conference call with donors on Monday that voters had found him passionless. He announced a reset of his campaign, according to a participant in the call, in which he would take on the Republican establishment to show that, like Donald J. Trump, he, too, strongly opposed the status quo.

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul called Walker a "career politician" who is part of the problem.
"Has he ever had a job outside of politics? He was running for office when he was in college. I'm not going to be lectured by a career politician, that's for sure," Paul said while visiting Haiti this week.
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal expressed skepticism about Walker's health care plan, which shifts some power to the states to operate Medicaid and includes refundable tax credits tied to age rather than income. Jindal said the plan creates another entitlement program.Startribune
