That said, if we MUST have one them for president, I'd rather it be one who the Republicans are more likely to OPPOSE, than one who they'll roll over for - especially considering that they have the same agenda.

That bears repeating.

Also a consideration that I have seen brought up is the SCOTUS. Speculation is that if obama is in, the current conservative justices won't resign, where they might if a republican is in the White House.

I agree with your assessment of Romney and what will happen if he's in and I also don't trust him in the area of the SCOTUS. I think he'll put in liberals as fast as obama.

I heard someone today call Romney *obamney* and I think he's right.

Yes, he will. Just examine his record of judicial appointments in Massachusetts for verification.

This brings us back to the dynamics of OPPOSITION. If we gain the majority in both houses of Congress this year (which is very likely), whose appointments to the Supreme Court is the Senate more likely to OPPOSE? Obama's or Romney's?

Let us not forget that either of them is likely to nominate the very same type of people to the bench. That being the case, it beggars belief that some would insist that we put someone in the White House who a Republican dominated Congress is likely to roll over for.
