Allow me to disagree. If Romney picks a Nominee that mirrors an Obama pick, Republicans will rise up and let him know, just as they did with Bush's Harriet Meyers choice.
Bush backed down, just like he did with his Amnesty idea because he felt pressure from the base, both Conservative and Moderate elements.
Obama would not look back. That is the difference. I will take a chance on Romney rather than having no chance at all with Obama. Obama’s second term would be a “nothing left to lose” term, not a “lame duck” term.

Romney's own record disputes your hope in him doing the right thing.
2/3rds or 75%, I forget which right now, of his nominees were Democrats, hard-left Democrats who couldn't give a flying leap about the constitution or anything else considered conservative in nature, and you state you hope he would listen to pressure from the base?
He's still lying about implementing Gay Marriage and supporting Gay Adoption while Governor of Massachusetts and you still want to HOPE that he would do the right thing?

Have you been watching the scorched-earth campaign Romney has been running against his Republican rivals? Do you think that's by accident? Romney destroyed the Republican party in Massachusetts and is doing the same kind of damage to the national party right now. He will nominate liberals and stick it in our face--or he will have no qualms about lying to us that his nominees are actually conservatives. The man is a born charlatan.
Or haven't you been paying attention?
