— -- In what could be considered an auspicious sign for his looming presidential campaign, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has run away decisively with the ABC/ESPN NCAA bracket challenge for potential 2016 candidates.

Walker picked all of the Final Four teams correctly. Although he picked Wisconsin and Duke to advance to the final, the governor inaccurately picked his home-state Badgers to win it all.

While it wasn't quite as stellar as Mitt Romney's nearly impeccable bracket -- which ranks in the 99.9th percentile of all ESPN.com entrants -- Walker's did pretty well, ranking in the 88.6th.
