the direction we move is determined by congress more than the president. the president has some power but congress ultimately steers the ship left or right. Congress is becoming increasingly conservative despite what some may say. with control of the senate and the house, we’re relatively safe no matter what happens with the presidential election. having said that, I have been more concerned with the outcome of the senate battles than the presidential race for over a year now since I had the foresight to see Mitt Romney coming. A 50/50 senate split seems quite possible and I don’t want Joe Biden being the deciding member of the senate. I’m not voting for Romney, I’m voting for whoever he picks for VP.
And I haven't notice a lot of conservatism out of Congress, now that you mention it.
I did notice a lot of go-along-to-get-along that wasn't well reported by the media, and a few big publicity items that don't amount to much, in the way of throwing a bone to the conservative base.
Say what you want. Do what you like. But the GOP has lost me, long ago, and I'll campaign against any liberal that comes up for a vote, whether they have a D or R beside their name.
Get used to it.

A) You don't get that ballot choice at the general election.
B) You have no idea who Romney might pick for a VP. So you are saying you are going to blindly vote for whoever someone you won't vote for picks for a running mate? Dude.. That's messed up.
