It may be easier for our side to keep Romney in line. If Obama wins, with MSM support he'll be unstoppable. Since President Romney-R won't get any cover from the MSM, we and a GOP controlled Congress may be able to stop any leftist ideas he proposes.
We couldn't keep Bush in line with both the House and Senate - they went crazy, pigs at a trough, and we ended up with the biggest, most intrusive, and most expensive federal government in our history, until Obama came along. I have seen nothing in Romney's record or his past that leads me to believe that Romney won't be just as bad as Bush.

The failure of a certain predecessor had a lot to do with that. But I'll grant that Bush was more into big government than I liked.

The difference is that Bush was "our man", while Romney was our (Conservatives) last choice and his only saving grace is that he isn't Obama. For this reason alone, out side will be more willing to hold his "liberalism" in check (I hope).

(With choices like Palin, Cain, and Bachmann, what could go wrong? Now we know.)
