And apparently it wasn’t mentioned in this article but he also cut in line and went right to the front.   And he didn’t bus his own trash - he left it on the table for someone else to pick up.

Bad, bad advance work.

>> Gov. Scott Walker’s attempt at cheese-steak diplomacy appeared to backfire on Tuesday when he stopped at both Pat’s and Geno’s, rival sandwich establishments, during a campaign swing through Philadelphia.

>> His crime? Asking for American cheese.

>> Connoisseurs of Philadelphia cheese steaks were aghast that the Republican presidential candidate from Wisconsin would opt against Cheez Whiz, the local condiment of choice, as well as the customary onions.
>> 
>> Scott Walker went to Geno's for a cheesesteak with American cheese and no onions? Everything about his policy is wrong

>> While Mr. Walker was apparently trying not to play favorites by eating at both restaurants, some Philadelphians sneered at him for not finishing his meal. Perhaps, it was suggested, he was not hungry enough for their votes.
>> 
>> Smh Scott Walker can't finish a cheesesteak. Republicans will never win the Philly vote.

>> Sandwiches are serious business in Philadelphia, but they can be pitfalls for visiting politicians. In 2003, John F. Kerry, then a senator from Massachusetts running for president, was jeered when he ordered Swiss cheese during a visit to Pat’s.
>> 
>> A spokeswoman for Mr. Walker’s campaign pointed to a 2008 poll <http://articles.philly.com/2008-05-23/news/24990246_1_cheez-whiz-cheesesteak-frank-olivieri> in which those surveyed said American cheese was a perfectly acceptable topping on a cheese steak. In fact, it proved more popular than provolone or Whiz.
>> 
>> Uncowed by protestors, Mr. Walker on Tuesday seemed to enjoy his lunch despite the limelight and had no shame in his choice of cheese.
