LOL ... shorebaby is like that Iraqi Information Minister, "Baghdad Bob".

Continually telling him/herself that everything is fine while, in reality, Shady Mitt is getting absolutely MAULED by Team BO.

I don't think there's anything damning from legal standpoint. The likely scenario is that his previous returns show that he paid little to no federal income taxes during the period he is refusing to release. The last thing you want to start is a national conversation on tax fairness when your economic policy is for further tax cuts for the wealthy. The middle and upper-middle, some of which are part of the 1%, are not going to be enthused about a candidate whose wealth allows him (legal) access to tax avoidance schemes that they do not have.

Well of course you are right. This is a side show and the independents see it for what it is, with the economy in shambles and the middle class hurting, this is what Obama wants to talk about this. It is damaging him.

You are white-knighting for a very wealthy candidate with a key economic policy that will lower taxes further for the wealthy while raising them on the middle class who is refusing to release documents likely showing that he paid little to nothing in federal taxes. If this is a distraction I think you are mistaken on who it is hurting.

Nope, I am simply standing for the truth. Many in the MSM have reported on the lie, yet Obama continues unabated. Things are going poorly in the country, and it is due to Obama. While we were shedding jobs and increasing the debt, he was focused on healthcare. These shenanigans simply amplify Obama's neglect of the economy. Obama is in bad shape. After spending millions in negative ads he has been unable to move he needle or secure his base.

Drip..drip.. drip, the dam is about to break.
The Republicans see Mitt has lost it already
and are starting to turn against him.
Their convention could get interesting.

The question is about the Romney concealment of where his money is hidden, how much is hidden, which foreign businesses he owns or is investing in and which foreign governments may be bankrolling or significantly contributing to his campaign via the PACs. President Obama has released his tax returns. Mitt should respect the standard set by his father, and by responsible candidates in the past. How do we trust someone who is this devious?
