No problem, I have no ground to stand on reading errors tonight. However...

I have to say your and Tau Food logic fails.

“RINO’s won’t support Obama’s programs”

For many of the biggies, Obamacare for example, it doesn’t matter anymore, it passed by Dems and was signed by Obama. Til law unless repealed or deemed unconsitutional. It keeps on rolling unless congress stops it.

That’s where we are. I don’t think it logical that Obamacare legislation is in greater danger if the Obama regime remains in power. He’s not gonna sign its repeal.

Romney is campaigning on repeal, congressional candidates across the country are making repeal a key issue in their election. Congress writes and passes legislation, the president signs or vetos (or pocket vetoes). If we have majorities in both houses, I will bet dimes to donuts that repeal of Obamacare comes out as legislation.

We both agree on the need for strong conservatives in congress. Obama’s veto pen can thwart that (just as the dem Senate thwarted the GOP house.)

It is extremely illogical to think keeping the Obama regime in power will result in less liberal legislation - that already passed and that yet passed.

Well I guess so but I never proffered that premise and I don't think the other poster did either.

You say that “Romney is campaigning on repeal,” but Romney vows to “repair and replace” Obamacare with a program that I guess we could call Romneycare, which (based upon Romney’s track record) might even be more intrusive than what will be left of Obamacare when the Supreme Court gets done with it. A President Obama will be hamstrung by a GOP House of Representatives, whereas a President Romney can expect to enjoy the support of many RINO’s and nearly all Democrats for a Romneycare proposal.

And that, my friend, is why I believe a President Romney could be much more dangerous than another four years of gridlock with Obama. I prefer gridlock to what Romney might see as “progress.”

Now, if Romney could at least publicly commit to “replace” Obamacare with a total federal withdrawal from the healthcare industry (and if I could believe his commitment was sincere), then I could look more favorably on his healthcare agenda. Unfortunately, Romney has “big plans” for healthcare and I don’t want any part of that, thank you.
