Romney or no Romney I believe congressional Republicans are too cowardly to really do anything if they had the power to do so.
It's like Obama taxing the rich before his re-election, he always calls for it, then always gets foiled(even when he has 60 in the Senate) , then blames the Republicans for the deficit, then says he never raised taxes anyway playing both sides.
Republicans play the same both sides game. Look at the Ryan plan and the Debt limit extension, always foiled, always give in. "Just give me more seats and this time I will deliver" . You just have to watch closely.
If I were president I would push to eliminate all taxes imposed on manufactured products and dump the tax on the consumer at the point of sale as a sales tax.
People wouldn’t be paying any more than they are now but it would be a great ball peen hammer to the forehead when they see what they pay in taxes if they weren’t paying them in the form of higher manufacturers prices.
Let’s face it Romney is a fail as a conservative. Look at the state he is from. He had to be a liberal. Rebuplicans make sorry conservatives..
