RE: He cannot do that — Congress is in charge of laws, not the President.

Again I am assuming that a Romney victory would carry the Senate and House together.

It is better than just maintaining the lower house.

And my argument still is this — THERE *IS* (emphasis) a difference between a President Romney and a President Obama.

The former ( although imperfect ) would be better.

There's not much to support that assumption -- traditionally the opposite party as the president is likely to make gains in the Congress, IIRC.

The difference is that one's a hard-line socialist and the other's a fabian socialist. I grant that much, but I still say they're socialists.

The former ( although imperfect ) would be better.

I honestly have my doubts about that -- a republican congress would likely show less resistance to statism even than they do under Obama, which means that we would be more 'normalized'... Obama at least has some polarizing effects.
