IMO, someone (more than one) would be bought for some handsome price to 
change their vote from Romney to Obama and the reverse for the VP both 
at the Congress, at the Senate and between the delegates.

How much would cost to buy the vote of a delegate to switch from Romney 
to Obama? At least a golden exile out of his state where people would 
wait him with soap and rope.

In this case the power of the Executive branch would be diminished even 
more. They would wield the power without the legitimacy.
