Why does Walker pronounce "time" as "toyme"?

[lutefisk]

Heard it a few time in the debate and wondered if that's some sort of unfortunate Colorado/Iowa/Wisconsin accent or just something he does. I've never heard that in Wisconsin before. New York or New Jersey, maybe but not here.

1. I think he's originally from Colorado and spend some toyme in Iowa.

He does lots of weird shit that shows him to be an outsider.

4. Right you are.

He's not even a real Wisconsinite.

5. It's sort of like Canadian Ted Cruz running for President of the United States.

7. Or GW Bush, the fake Texan

Or JEB, the fake Floridian...

2. The Ayn Rand McNally Dictionary? (eom)

3. His mother.... little known fact... is Coffee Talk's Linda Richman.

And let me tell you, she is a beauteeeeful person.

6. Just figured it out: Rosie Perez

When he says "toyme" it reminds me of Brooklyn born actress Rosie Perez, especially when she was younger.

How Walker picked up a first generation Puerto Rican Brooklyn woman's partial accent we may never know.
