[CharacterCounts]

Looking at the track record of Congressional Republicans, and the way the party apparatus works to control outcomes of Congressional votes, it is difficult to believe that a Republican Congress will hold a Republican President's feet to the fire, no matter how leftwing his proposal.

Consider health care:

There's a good chance the Supreme Court knocks it down this June.

But Romney wants to repeal and replace Obamacare.

Replace with what?

We don't need a replacement, we need the federal government out of the health care business.

Will Congressional Republicans kill a Republican President's replacement heath care program? Don't bet on it.
