I’ve made the argument that the best path MIGHT be for a republican controlled congress and Obama in the white house. I won’t get into the particulars here but the SCOTUS decision kinda nixed that.

If the only thing a Romney election gets us is the death of Obama care I’ll be happy.

***Obamacare is based on Romneycare. Just how ignorant are you?

Two thirds of both houses would do it (that would allow the GOP to override his vetoes and impeach him if he gets too tiresome).

But how likely is that to happen in an election in which Obama also wins a second term? The sort of election that would produce that result would also sweep in a GOP president. It would be a "wave" election, more than likely led by the top of the ticket.

On the other hand, a result in which the GOP securely controls Congress, yet Obama is reelected, would be a total freak of nature! Extremely unlikely!

Absolutely.

Of course, it will require convincing majorities in both houses to ensure that Mittens etches the right sketch with respect to health care and all the other issues. The likelihood of those majorities is dependent on how fired up the sheeple are about replacing Obama with a positive alternative in November. Talking down the Republican ticket is not the way to make that happen.
