My perspective doesn't have any thing to do with Massachusetts. I simply do not want Obama anywhere NEAR the Oval Office after Inauguration Day, 2013.
We can work hard to get conservatives in Congress all we want, but with Obama still the President, all our work will go for nothing, because he'll still do whatever he wants; we've already seen it in his first term, and he'll have absolutely no constraints in a second. He will believe he has a mandate, and will ignore anyone acting to the contrary.
“all our work will go for nothing, because he’ll still do whatever he wants; we’ve already seen it in his first term, and he’ll have absolutely no constraints in a second.”
Not so. If there are sufficient votes in the Senate, he can be impeached in the House and tried in the Senate. He has definitely violated the separation of powers intent of the constitution.
Romney could and probably would attempt the same thing, except he woudn’t have a congress to oppose him because of “party loyalty.” IF you care about the constitution, you will not help place either in office, but you can be sure that a strong CONSERVATIVE House and Senate will dispatch Obama. At a minimum they will keep him in check.
It is really time to reel back in the “Executive” branch of government...regardless of who holds it. The Judicial as well.
