Ok, Reid's a zero, and I'm for Romney, sort of, though his failure yesterday to take a stand in favor of the Chick-Fil-A supporters leaves me cold as a stone, but it certainly looks like he's hiding something by not releasing his returns. If you have something to hide, why run for office? What a joke. And we're hobbled with this mittoast nominee. It's so sad. I want to advise all to support Mitt, because of course O might be the final straw for this country before the Civil Disorder. We really are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Maybe suck it up and support our gayminee, I mean nominee, but start thinking about booting him in 2016. I mean plan from the start for a primary challenge; I like Rand Paul though I don't know all about him and Ron Paul had some issues, I don't know if any others agree on that, on Rand Paul for 2016.

I thought he should release them at first. Now I say the hell with the Dems. Even if he has nothing to hide, the tax laws are so complex and byzantine that they will be poured over by the press for months. Accusations will be thrown out, to a public that has no idea what is legal or illegal as far as tax deductions go, in the hope that something sticks.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Washington Post may ask their readers to examine the returns they way they asked them to examine Palin’s emails. It's all about a fishing expedition for a scandal whether it exists or not, courtesy of the MSM Obama droolers.

Exactly, if he’s clean he has nothing to lose by releasing his returns. If he’s clean he has nothing to gain by holding back. It appears that one of the things the elites like is dirty candidates that can be controlled.

I don't think so; I think he's just saying personal intrusiveness goes no further.

I remember back during the Bush campaign when they asked him if he had done cocaine. He refused to answer and many assumed he had. But, in fact, he had decided that he they had done enough personal dirt-digging and it was time to stop answering questions. Finally saying "no" is the only way to stop them going down a road that is going nowhere.

If Mitt had this kind of dirt, the MA democrat or the GOP opposition candidates would have unearthed it years ago.
