Romney warns of Republican retaliation if he's not elected

In a speech on Friday, Mitt Romney sent out the first hint that Republicans will likely retaliate if Obama were re-elected. Romney said this:
"He's ignored them [Republicans], he's attacked them, he's blamed them," Romney said about President Barack Obama and Congress. "The debt ceiling will come up again, and shutdown and default will be threatened, chilling the economy."

This pretty much mirrors my view of what's going to happen following an Obama win. The Republicans will do everything to torpedo the economy and blame Obama for the disaster that follows.

LIke the financial industry, hostage-taking. Isn't that a tool of terrorism?
