Since Romney’s team has already put out hints that RomneyCare is allegedly better than ObamaCare, and that it is impossible to repeal ObamaCare, we will likely still wind up with RomneyCare on a national level along with a single pay system, albeit we’ll get there with a flourish of pro-market sounding propaganda. The same can be said about his tax policies, which he has already hinted that he will pay for tax cuts not by a focus on cutting spending, but on a removal of deductions and alleged “loopholes” people have on things like state property or income taxes. In Mass., Romney raised taxes and fees to the point that the state would have been last in business growth if not for Hurricane Katrina.
IOW, we will not be better off with Mitt Romney. And the GOP, as per usual, will not resist Romney the same way they would resist Obama.
There is nothing to celebrate here, unless you’re gullible and buy all that Romney is selling. He’s a con-artist, not too far removed from old Joe Smith.

You do know that a PRESIDENT Romney will not be producing the legislation in 2013 don’t you? The Tea Party factions currently in the House have not, for the most part, been ones to toe the line for the GOPe. If we work hard to send them reinforcements they will be even MORE of a force to contend with. And VERY good things are beginning to develop in the various US Senate races—Tea Party candidates are winning over RINOs & GOPe types. There is a good possibility that, if we continue to work hard, come 2013 the Republican majority in the Senate will be controlled by conservatives.
My point is that it is not the 2013 GOP controlled Congress that will need to RESIST Romney (although they will have to IGNORE any stupid, short-sighted legislative proposals he may send forth). It will be instead the Presidency that could resist this new conservative Republican controlled Congress. And guess what?—Romney will not be vetoing Republican legislation; a 2nd term lame-duck Obama would—in addition to doing much, much more to destroy the country.
