    He wouldn't be able to cut taxes and Obamacare. It would possibly be one or the other. No way the Dems are going to let him screw them that way. They would be better off letting the gov shut down.

      Not if letting the government shut down means some more unemployed Democrat legislators.
      If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

        It wouldn't be their fault. It would be Romneys.

                I can see that you think you know everything because you took one course in political science, so I won't bother you anymore about it.

                  It wouldn't. The public doesn't just accept whatever Mitt Romney says as fact. I think you've lost touch with reality. Not everyone shares your bias.

                    It didn't accept whatever Bill Clinton said was fact, either.

                      Unfortunately I think Romney is a bit more savy than HC.

                        Also, I'm pretty sure that social security checks don't stop if there's a government shutdown.

                            So, just by repealing Obamacare, $5 trillion - $2 trillion = $3 trillion.
                            The false $2 trillion figure Republicans have pulled out of their asses is just complete unadulterated lies. I bet you were stupid enough to believe their lies about death panels too. Or that Obama was really an illegal alien from Kenya. Or a secret Muslim terrorist sleeper agent. Or any of the other of dozens of bold faced lies they come up with on a regular basis.

                              CBO and the staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation have estimated the direct spending and revenue effects of H.R. 6079, the Repeal of Obamacare Act, as passed by the House of Representatives on July 11, 2012.


                              What Is the Impact of Repealing the ACA on the Federal Budget?
                              Assuming that H.R. 6079 is enacted near the beginning of fiscal year 2013, CBO and JCT estimate that, on balance, the direct spending and revenue effects of enacting that legislation would cause a net increase in federal budget deficits of $109 billion over the 2013–2022 period. Specifically, we estimate that H.R. 6079 would reduce direct spending by $890 billion and reduce revenues by $1 trillion between 2013 and 2022, thus adding $109 billion to federal budget deficits over that period.
                              What's Romney going to do about the remaining $5.1 trillion in his reduce the deficit by $5 trillion plan?

                                Why don't we make a friendly wager, Asher. Obamacare will end up costing > 5 trillion a year.
