And let’s all toast to having a US president who will actually sign the legislation that the above described 2013 Congress (and its even better 2015 Congress) passes.

Do really believe that Mitt Romney is investing all this time and money to enact someone else's agenda? If most of the Republicans in Congress wouldn't aggressively fight Obama, why do you expect that they will fight a President of their own party? In all likelihood, Romney will be calling the tune and the Republicans in Congress will dance to that tune.

You really do need to reread (or read for the 1st time if that’s your situation) the United States Constitution. It’s Congress that passes bills and it’s the President who either signs those bills into law or instead vetoes them. The President does not present Congress with bills for it to sign. I’m, of course, aware that Congress takes input from the executive branch just as it does from various potentially impacted parties.

The bottom line is that we are on the way toward having significantly more conservatives among the Republicans in Congress (in both the House and in the Senate) and we’re on our way toward Republican control of both parts of that body. And it is my hope/dream that the Republicans in both the House and the Senate will be having a leadership that has a substantially more conservative slant than is the case today.

The bottom line is that a President Romney would be signing the bills that the new Congress passes and that a President Obama (God help us all) would be frequently vetoing many bill that he doesn’t like. Any resulting adverse impacts on our nation would be blamed by Obama and the main stream media on the Republican Congress. And that situation would continue up to the 2014 election where I think it would likely have an adverse impact upon that election.
