If Romney won, when it gets really bad as virtually any and all seem to believe it will, Romney probably would have done an admirable job with damage control and repair, but he would have gotten all the heat and misplaced blame, too. Those parts would not his.
Now, the people who did the deed are more likely to get the credit and blame for the pain they have caused and blamed others for. No guarantee, he's a media made sensation after all, but the odds are fairly good obama will have some 'splaining to do.
40% chance he'll not have a happy time these next four. 100% chance that we won't. Take your pick. WWIII or CWII seem to be trending up these days...
Good post.
The real SHTF point will be when financial markets decide that the Baraqqi/Bernanke/Geithner money creation is no longer tenable.
I wish I was smart enough to predict when that happens.
