Summary:Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, 46, made history last year when he became the first governor in U.S. history to survive a recall election, sparked by his showdown with the state's public-employee unions. That's the subject of his new book, Unintimidated, being published by Sentinel on Tuesday. In an interview with USA TODAY's Capital Download on Saturday, he talked about the 'cheesehead revolution' and a potential 2016 rivalry with Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan. The video interview is posted on usatoday.com. Below are excerpts, which have been edited for length and clarity. A: Paul and I talk almost every week on a variety of issues, everything from politics to policy to hunting to the (Green Bay) Packers to the kids and everything in between. We haven't talked about this. I think he's focused on trying to get the budget reforms going forward. I'm focused on...making the state better. Who knows what the future will bring? It's an interesting question.
