In a last ditch-effort to make Mitt Romney president, an Idaho lawmaker proposes that electors from Romeny states should skip the electoral college, which she believes would deprive the electoral college of a quorum, which in turn would make the House of Representatives decide the election.
BOISE – A state senator from north-central Idaho is touting a scheme that’s been circulating on tea party blogs, calling for states that supported Mitt Romney to refuse to participate in the Electoral College in a move backers believe would change the election result.
Sen. Sheryl Nuxoll, R-Cottonwood, sent an article out on Twitter headed, “A ‘last chance’ to have Mitt Romney as President in January (it’s still not too late).”

John Boehner has already said that the outcome of the election, which allowed Republicans to retain control of the House, though with a smaller majority, means that the public supports a tax plan that cuts tax rates and pays for it with spending cuts to be decided later. That's exactly the plan Romney advocated in the election. If that's what the public wants, then it must mean that this plan to make Romney president is also what the public would want.
