Walker to talk about taking on Washington at Eureka College

MADISON, WI (AP)--   Republican Scott Walker plans to talk about "wreaking havoc" on Washington D.C. with a Thursday speech at the alma mater of former President Ronald Reagan. 

Walker's presidential campaign on Tuesday released excerpts of his speech to be delivered at Eureka College in Illinois.  Walker is also expected to release weekly "day one" promises that describe action he would plan to take on his first day as president.  Walker has already said he will end the Iranian arms deal and propose repealing and replacing the federal health care law on his first day in office.

The speech and weekly release of "day one" promises comes as Walker is trying to regain ground after being among the top tier of Republican candidates, only to see his standing drop in recent polls.
