In my estimation Romney will only manage the decline, rather than accelerate it (which is an improvement regardless). Unless he does things after the election he’s been unwilling to state during the campaign, neither he nor the public are yet ready to accept what must be done to fix this.
You are absolutely correct.
agree. Anyone expecting Romney to shut down the EPA, Energy, Education, Labor and audit the Fed etc, etc, etc will be disappointed. He’s a business consultant who specializes in streamlining operations and making them more efficient. We will see a reduction in federal workforce and departmental budgets and a better bottom line but not much else.
I expect a top to bottom review of all the operations and a very Clintonesque declaration about the era of big government while he attempts to undo all the destruction Obama has wrought.
What people don’t understand is that it will take 8-12 years to root out all the plantar warts Obama shoved in the dark corners of every agency. Elections have consequences and all those that took the day off in 2008 need to realize that the era of being disengaged politically is over. We need to keep countering the left because they will never go away. We can’t stop attending events, rallies and town halls, we can’t stop promoting local people in local elections and creating a bullpen of qualified candidates willing to step up when necessary.
To paraphrase Churchill, Romney is just the end of the beginning of a long and drawn out conflict of ideas that will last for a few generations.
