I mentioned on another thread that I do not trust the other GOP candidates nor do I trust Obama.

This!
I will write in Ron Paul, expecting Mr Obama to be re-elected. However, I will probably vote for the republican in the one Senatorial seat up for election this year in my state (in my House district the republicans have a monopoly).
After suffering a disaster in the 2001-2010 period due to a lack of balance of power, I think that the Constitutional checks and balances have actually worked quite well over the past 18 months or so and the economy is at least stabilizing on its own. The less those nincompoops do the better, the exact result that the Constitution is designed to achieve.
I would be deeply concerned if Mr Obama were re-elected with the democrats regaining the majority in the House.
I don't expect the republicans to gain a majority in the Senate, it will remain a virtual tie (any combination within the 59-41 range is okay).
I would be equally concerned if the repubodem Romney were elected with any kind of Congressional make-up, he and his cronies could bribe them all in their own interest, just like Mr Bush and his cronies did.
I would only vote for Mr Romney if he fully embraced monetary policy reform and guaranteed appointment of Ron Paul as Secretary of Treasury or Federal Reserve Chairman. Very highly unlikely at this point.
Good Luck!
