I think the outcome of the election is a direct influence of the economy for next year. Romney was not going to work miracles overnight, but we are in for a much harder landing now.

My guess is Romney would have been acting just like Boehner has been acting. And the reason is, they have no choice because they wont make the tough decisions. Having the people accept the tough decisions would require honesty from DC. And that has not occurred in many years.
