Well said. My impression so far, however, is that Romney has been very comfortable with conservatives moreso than he's ever been. Actually, he's probably never been surrounded in conservative idealogy. I think he likes it. I don't think he feels any pressure to make happy those of the disappearing RINO breed. He surely can see that conservatives are winning the day all over for 2 years.

He clearly was a chameleon in Mass., which is my main criticism. Whether a chameleon now living on a conservative tapestry, or a closest conservative freed at last, I'm expecting some solid stuff.

He said he suspected humans had some affect on global warning, but couldn't be sure how much, or what if any action was needed. We now know that he'll unleash energy, and lower taxes. He won't take any guff from the EPA, and I'll bet defunds it to barebones, nor will we see a carbon tax. It'll be boom time. I can't see him supporting abortion in his present incarnation.

One concern is the border, but there is a large segment of conservatives (like Rubio) who want to try to find a way to solve the egregious incidents, so I expect some flexing there, but I'll bet a fence finally gets built.

Support for Israel, and national defense seems strong. Overall, I remain optimistic, but just in case....(tagline)

“If Boehner is having a hard time dealing with real conservatives, after November he might find the speaker job too much for him.”

We can only hope!

Won’t take too many more votes to replace him so he can look for his nuts.

A “moderate” is someone who is too gutless or too stupid to take a stand.
