Romney would have seen the following pushed through:

* Government Run Healthcare

* Comprehensive Immigration Reform (Massive Amnesty)

* Gun Control

* Normalization of Homosexuality; Same-Sex Marriage

* Crack Down on Conservative Dissent

Romney would have been harder to oppose than a democrat President. It is very likely that republicans would not hold the majorities in Congress and the clear substantial majorities in statehouses that they do today had Romney been elected.

Romney would likely have increased cronyism and let corporate oligarchs gain an even stronger hand than they do now.

Romney would have faced tough race relations and he may have also allowed government takeover of the internet if the large oligarchical interests had persuaded him to do so. He would likely also have considered and supported control on ammunition and Choke Point tactics to get power over gun dealers.

One thing is clear, if a conservative were to soeak up against a President Romney, he would not be around for much longer. Romney’s people were vicious to voices of dissent coming from Conservatives.

I’m not sure where you’re getting some of this. Romney ran on repealing Obamacare. His immigration position was actually better than Cruz or Walker’s, which is a big deal given how demographics is destiny. That’s one area where his heart actually seemed to be in it. On guns he sold his soul to the NRA to get their endorsement and wouldn’t have reversed that...too much political pressure not too. No way he would have advanced the gay agenda like Obama has. As for being “cracked down” on, politics is a rough sport. Rather than be whiny babies, let’s figure out how to get in a position where we can crack down on them.
