You are correct, but also unleash our energy! Coal, gas, oil and fracking, not to mention the Keystone pipeline!
That alone will raise this nation’s status in the world beyond measure. Revenues will be up, the stock market will be up, unemployment will be down, the economy will stabilize and Obama will be viewed as he should be viewed, as an abject failure.

The key thing about a first Romney term, to me, is the liklihood of Scalia and Kennedy, and maybe even Ginsburg, leaving the Supreme Court. Who knows who Romney would nominate, but we have a better shot at Conservative (or at least not socialistic progressive) justices with him than with Obama.
Personally, I don’t think a President Romney will get 1/10 of his plan through the inevitable Senate filibusters. But keeping the Dems from securing the Court for the next 20-30 years is critical.

That has been my point for months and nearly got me banned...but you miss the true nature...it would not be 20-30 years...it would be forever due to the trashing of the constitution and the demographic changes (amnesty upheld) that would occur under CJ Sotomayer...America as we know it even today would be gone forever.
The 20-30 year figure is the length of time before a “hard reset” occurs. By hard reset I mean complete socio-economic collapse. Imho the current system can be strung along through increased taxes (targeted for gradual implementation to split taxable groups off slowly and incrementally) but eventually the money WILL run out, most likely coinciding with the tail end of the baby boomer retirements.
